With almost 10 million visitors a year, over a 1,000 residents and 7,500 employees, the lifestyle center is staying at the forefront of innovation and safety with this advanced security technology to serve as a community “watchdog” and keep the already low crime rate at a minimum, the release said.

The robot will stroll around Crocker Park, as he is here to help guide you and keep you safe while shopping, according to the release.

SAM, the autonomous, AI-driven robot will be equipped with advanced security capabilities, providing real-time monitoring and proactive responses to potential security incidents, the release said.

Moving 2-3 mph with a 360-degree view, the robot is on the lookout for theft, car accidents, fires, vandalism and more, according to the release.

Able to travel in any weather condition, SAM will be used year-round as a community crime stopper and serve as an extension of Crocker Park Security Ambassadors, the release said.

“We are excited to incorporate Knightscope’s advanced technology into our security operations,” said Sean Flanigan, vice president of security at Stark Enterprises in the release. “Our priority has always been to provide a safe and secure environment for everyone who visits our center, and the Knightscope robot will play a crucial role in enhancing our existing security measures.”

SAM boasts an array of sophisticated features, including 360-degree video streaming/recording and thermal imaging.

Its AI algorithms enable it to detect anomalies and issue alerts to the on-site security team in real-time.

This augmentation in security is aimed at deterring potential incidents, ensuring a rapid response to any arising concerns, and fostering a safe and welcoming environment for the entire community, according to the release.

SAM will be focused on security, not as an informational tool, as customers can visit any of the 12 digital kiosks for directions and details on all of the more than 140 stores or restaurants, the release said.

“We are always looking for ways to enhance and elevate our guest experience,” said Stacie Schmidt, vice president of marketing at Stark Enterprises in the release. “SAM is a welcomed addition to the security team as he will help provide guest assistance, peace of mind and safety for our guests and staff.

With this high-tech innovation, Crocker Park is living up to its newly awarded accolade: Top 5 Retail Experience Center in the U.S. by Chain Store Age Magazine, the release said.
