Abstract

The so-called RoboGuard is a mobile security device which is tightly integrated into the existing surveillance framework developed and marketed by Quadrox, a Belgian SME. RoboGuards are semi-autonomous mobile robots providing video streams via wireless Intranet-connections to existing watchguard systems, supplemented by various basic and optional behaviors.

The article describes how the main challenges from the telematics viewpoint, namely ensuring quality of service and fail-safe guarantees, are solved in this system.
