On Thursday, the company announced it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Tower PMC, a company specializing in managing high-end residential properties, to establish a security robot service. According to the agreement, the two firms will spend about two months verifying the technology at Tower Palace prior to deploying the robots for actual operations in the fourth quarter of the year.\n\nLG CNS will train the four-legged robots utilizing data gathered from the complex, encompassing its layout, patrol routes, and potential abnormal situations like falls and fires.

Furthermore, managers will have the capability to communicate with the robots in real time via two-way audio and video systems.",
