On the prospects of using robots in police activities

The relevance of the study is due to the fact that modern innovative technologies are increasingly influencing the state of public safety, while the introduction of robots is classified as one of the nine priority areas for the development of science and technology in the Russian Federation. Modern public security cannot be built without taking into account the use of modern innovative technologies, which means that it involves the adoption of appropriate technical devices by the police. The article discusses the most promising areas of use of robotic systems in police activities. A comprehensive analysis of the technological capabilities of robotic complexes is carried out, and a general classification is given according to the principle of their use in police activities. The object of the study is the legal relations that arise in the process of using robotic complexes in police activities. The subject of the research is the legal, technological and tactical possibilities of using robots, as well as the legal norms governing the use of robotic complexes in police activities. The methodological basis of the article is made up of both general scientific and private scientific methods of cognition, as well as logical, formal-legal, comparative-legal research methods, historical analysis of regulatory legal acts regulating the use of robots in police activities. The author examines not only the technological aspects of their use, but also reveals the problems of the legal nature of the robots' use, as well as suggests ways to solve them. This article provides an overview of materials reflecting the latest trends in the robots' use in police activities in other countries, and provides a comparative analysis of the legal, practical, and technological nature of their use of robots in foreign countries and in Russia. A generalized definition of robotic complexes is given. The main conclusions of the study are the tasks, the solution of which will allow the use of robotic complexes in the activities of the national police. As well as the understanding that the use of robotic technologies and complexes in police activities is an urgent and promising research topic that has many aspects and questions. Robotic complexes will bring significant benefits in law enforcement, help relieve police units of routine tasks, increase operational efficiency through the use of innovative solutions and technologies, and increase security for police officers when detaining offenders.
