Singapore is using one of the robot dogs developed by Boston Dynamics in a pilot program to help enforce social distancing in a park amid the coronavirus pandemic. The Straits Times reports that the four-legged yellow dog, named "Spot," is patrolling Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, reminding people to stay six feet apart. The dog broadcasts a recorded message about proper distancing, and also has cameras so authorities can keep track of potential crowding in the park. More of the robot dogs will be used if the pilot program is successful.
