Street security robot introduced to the public 

Knightscope, a developer of autonomous security robots and blue light emergency communication systems, has announced that lifestyle centre, Crocker Park, has deployed a K5 Autonomous Security Robot (ASR) in Westlake, Ohio. 

The shopping and dining destination, that holds 1,000+ residents and 7,500 employees, has deployed Knightscope’s state-of-the-art robot to further ensure the safety and peace of mind for visitors, residents and tenants alike. The addition of the ASR has affectionately been named SAM – the “Secret Agent Man”. 

SAM, the autonomous, AI-driven robot will be equipped with advanced security capabilities, providing real-time monitoring and proactive responses to potential security incidents. Moving at walking speeds with a 360-degree view, the robot’s daily mission is to deter, detect and report. SAM will also be able to connect you with security if you require help with just the push of a button.  

“We are excited to incorporate Knightscope’s advanced technology into our security operations,” said Sean Flanigan, Vice President of Security at Stark Enterprises. “Our priority has always been to provide a safe and secure environment for everyone who visits our centre, and the Knightscope robot will play a crucial role in enhancing our existing security measures.” 

“We are always looking for ways to enhance and elevate our guest experience,” said Stacie Schmidt, Vice President of Marketing at Stark Enterprises. “SAM is a welcomed addition to the security team as he will help provide guest assistance, peace of mind and safety for our guests and staff.”
