Tunis has been on lockdown since March 22 TUNIS: Unmanned robots are patrolling the streets of Tunisia’s capital as part of the government’s measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus. The unmanned ground vehicles are called P-Guard and locally developed by Enova Robotics. They are being used by the Ministry of Interior to enforce its lockdown of Tunis. The city has been on lockdown since March 22. Enova, founded in Tunisia in 2014, describes the P-Guard as a “rugged security robot for multi-terrain applications.” The robot uses several infrared cameras to function, which are arranged to cover the entire surrounding of the robot and it is also fitted with a thermal camera and a sound and light alarm system. The robot incorporates GPS to locate itself in its environment as well as a laser telemetry system. Tunisia has 278 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and has had eight mortalities from the virus.
