COBALT WAS DESIGNED TO BRING AUTONOMOUS SECURITY INTO THE WORKPLACE AS A COLLABORATIVE PRESENCE. MORE THAN 60 SENSORS GAVE IT THE AWARENESS TO PATROL, DETECT AND REPORT, WHILE A REMOTE HUMAN OPERATOR COULD STEP IN WHEN NEEDED. THE ENTIRE SYSTEM WAS WRAPPED IN A TENSILE FABRIC SKIN, ALLOWING MANY OF THE SENSORS TO WORK THROUGH THE SURFACE WHILE GIVING THE COMPLEX TECHNOLOGY A SOFTER PRESENCE AND MAKING THE OUTER SKIN EASY TO CUSTOMIZE.
