A robot is chasing down criminals at impressive speeds. China's latest innovation in policing technology has rolled onto the scene, quite literally. The Rotunbot RT-G, developed by Logon Technology, is a spherical robot that's turning heads and chasing down criminals at impressive speeds. This 276-pound mechanical machine is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in law enforcement robotics. Let's break down what this crime-fighting machine is all about.

Kepler's Forerunner K2 represents the fifth generation of its humanoid robot technology. Footage from the streets of China captured a scene straight from a science fiction novel – spherical drones alongside patrolling law enforcement. Chinese robotics company, Logon Technology, unveiled the RT-G autonomous spherical robot in a release, saying it was a "technological breakthrough" designed to assist and even replace humans in dangerous environments. The spherical robots are capable of operating both on land and water. The robots can reach speeds of up to 35km/h (approximately 22 mph) and withstand impact damage of up to 8,818 pounds (4 tons), the company said.
