Every day, security, and safety officers have to deal with the growing number of malicious acts, while at the same time ensuring the safety of on-site installations. It’s clear that private sites — from industry to the service sector, not forgetting public buildings — need reliable, constant surveillance.
But how do you ensure that risks are managed and that sites and operators are safe, in a sector that is suffering from a shortage of applicants and a lack of promotion of security professions?
As the person in charge of safety and security, you will have noticed that threats are evolving. They are becoming increasingly sophisticated, requiring you to adapt your security strategies on an ongoing basis.
The need for effective surveillance remains an inescapable imperative. Potential threats can arise at any time, requiring 24/7 vigilance. Maintaining heightened vigilance is crucial to keeping premises safe from malicious acts. Just as the ability to detect and react quickly to incidents is crucial to ensuring optimum security. But constant patrolling is a real challenge!
Technological risks to the environment, as well as fire safety, remain major challenges, particularly at industrial sites. Nevertheless, regular inspection of facilities and the taking of measurements can be a source of error…
Finally, we cannot ignore the budgetary realities and limited resources associated with traditional safety. Striking a balance between operational efficiency and cost management is a constant challenge that you face in your mission to guarantee the safety of the sites for which you are responsible.
In this context, autonomous surveillance robots such as the GR100 are proving to be invaluable everyday allies.
The sheer number of risks, the constant need for inspection and surveillance, and the costs and resources associated with traditional security, mean that teams
need to be supplemented with autonomous security robots.
But that’s where the problem lies! Your team leaders and field operators are sceptical… yet robots free them from repetitive and time-consuming tasks, and improve their working conditions. Allowing them to concentrate on higher added-value tasks, thereby enhancing overall safety.
Contrary to popular belief, the emergence of security robots has highlighted the challenges and difficulties faced by security officers. Not only do these robots enhance inspection and surveillance, they also make a significant contribution to improving working conditions for security guards.
Take the GR100 robot, for example: it’s not just a surveillance tool, but a partner in improving the working conditions of safety and security operators. By automating certain tasks, it allows your teams to concentrate on more rewarding missions.
Firstly, the robot enables constant surveillance of high-risk areas, reducing the need for operatives to maintain a continuous physical presence in potentially dangerous environments. This results in fewer stressful situations and better management of working hours, promoting a healthier work-life balance.
In a nutshell:
The integration of external surveillance robots, such as the GR100, adds an extra dimension of security, reinforcing the protection of agents during their missions. Our robots are equipped with advanced technologies such as intrusion detection and two-way communication, offering invaluable support to agents. This not only contributes to better security, but also to greater peace of mind for security and safety professionals, who can concentrate on more complex and strategic tasks.
In a nutshell:
As a security manager, you probably take the subject of fire and technological risks to the environment very seriously. This is particularly true if you manage a site classified as Seveso, nuclear, oil and gas, a storage warehouse or a site dedicated to energy.
According to CNPP’s Barometer of Safety Engineers and Managers 2023, the technological risks most frequently taken into account are the management of the storage and transport of hazardous materials, chemical risks and industrial accidents.
The GR100 inspection robot is an essential companion for operators and firefighters, carrying out precise, automated measurements every day at pre-defined strategic points. By reporting any abnormal measured values, the safety robot plays a proactive role in preventing and reducing environmental and fire risks. In other situations, the robot supports the safety officers by alerting them to anomalies such as a missing fire extinguisher or an open door. This increased assistance enables operators to improve their efficiency and responsiveness by anticipating risks.
The man-robot synergy goes beyond prevention, optimising operational efficiency, increasing responsiveness to critical situations, and enabling remote maintenance interventions. Thanks to the GR100’s two-way communication capability, the operator can guide a colleague on site. This remote interaction offers a practical and rapid solution to problems, reducing downtime and boosting overall operational productivity. In short, the GR100 robot not only automates inspection tasks, but acts as an intelligent partner in proactively managing risk and effectively resolving operational issues.
In a nutshell:
In short, the integration of the GR100 autonomous outdoor robot represents a significant step forward in improving your security team’s missions. This intelligent, autonomous companion acts as a strategic ally:
Human-robot collaboration goes beyond prevention, optimising operational efficiency and offering greater responsiveness to critical situations. What’s more, the ability to carry out maintenance remotely represents a real improvement in your team’s working conditions, reducing risks and increasing operational efficiency.
Are you ready to take the next step towards safer, smarter and more efficient working conditions for you and your teams?
