Knightscope and LMGPR: A Winning Team

It's been a busy week for Knightscope. The company unveiled the K5, an autonomous data machine that can predict and prevent crime, at the Winter 2013 Plug and Play EXPO on December 5th, 2013 in Silicon Valley.

The K5 was well-received and won a prestigious EXPO award for its showing. The Silicon Valley Business Journal's Cromwell Schubarth said the 5-foot, 300 pound robot "stole the show." You can watch Knightscope's three-minute pitch here.
