# AI Enforcement Drones The 'Metropolis' Police Drone Would Interact with Humans on the Road By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-03-21 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/police-drone References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/metropolis-futuristic-empathic-wheel-shaped-police-drone/) & [charlesbombardier](http://www.charlesbombardier.com/) As autonomous vehicles begin to enter the market, that same technology is being applied to enforcement with the 'Metropolis' police drone. A conceptual design created by Charles Bombardier, the drone was made into a design concept by Adolfo Esquivel. The drone would drive on the road via a singular wheel design that would make weaving through tight areas and traffic a cinch. When interacting with humans, the 'Metropolis' police drone would use a holographic system to display a figure to converse with. AI technology would allow the robotic drone to talk more personably with humans rather than being a unit with a black and white outlook on enforcement. The drone, although merely in conceptual design stages, could help to influence how designs of the future are fashioned. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 45% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [AI](https://www.trendhunter.com/ai) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Autonomous Enforcement:** The use of AI-driven drones for enforcement purposes presents an opportunity for the development of more efficient and precise methods of policing. - **Human-AI Interaction:** The use of holographic systems to allow AI-driven drones to interact with humans opens the door for new forms of communication in public spaces. - **Design Innovation:** The development of futuristic drone designs like the 'Metropolis' police drone presents an opportunity for companies to innovate new products for the emerging autonomous technology market. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Law Enforcement:** The 'Metropolis' police drone is a potential game-changer for law enforcement, offering a glimpse into how future policing may be conducted. - **Transportation:** As autonomous technology becomes more advanced, the use of drones on the road may present new opportunities for the transportation industry. - **Technology Design:** The development of AI-driven drones like the 'Metropolis' police drone presents a unique opportunity for designers to create innovative and futuristic products for the growing autonomous technology market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Urban Robot Traffic Safety](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polis.md) - [Drone-Equipped Security SUVs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ghiath-smart-patrol.md) - [Autonomous High-Profile Combat Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorcycle-drone.md) - [Safety-Enhancing Community Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-public-safety-drone.md) - [Autonomous Emergency Drone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polestar-duo.md) - [Interactive Autonomous Cityscape Sweepers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-unmanned-sweeper-concept.md) - [Unique AI Design Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rideable-aipowered-personal-assistant.md) - [Interactive Autonomous Delivery Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robo-a2z-delivery-vehicle.md) - [Drone-Incorporated Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polestars-o2-roadster.md)
