Robotcop III

Y no, no es la mala pelicula:

HONG KONG: There is a new cop on the block in Hong Kong, all set to teach the public how to combat crime.

But the man in blue stands out for being the first of his kind in the territory - he is actually a robot.

After two predecessors from the US, Robotcop The Third is "born-and-bred", so to speak, in Hong Kong.

He was conceptualised and built by the best researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

But his key features actually came from several students who won a Robotcop design competition.

It might cost around HK$300,000 to develop and build, but the service it provides the Hong Kong crime prevention drive is priceless.
