WinterGreen Research announces the following study: First Responder, Homeland Security, and Law Enforcement Robots Markets, Worldwide, Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, 2010-2016 Worldwide markets are poised to achieve significant growth as the first responder and homeland security ground robots are used globally. Growth comes as the border patrols and law enforcement agencies use robots to achieve broader security in a less expensive manner, delivering the promise of automated process in yet another industry. First responder robots bring changes in every region while the globally integrated enterprise replaces nationalistic dominance, creating broader cooperative police actions that replace nationalistic wars. These police actions are aimed against the bad guys. That automation of process has appeal to those who run the airports, border patrol, law enforcement agencies, and first responder organizations. key words: first responder robots, law enforcement robots, sensor networks, bomb detection robots, robot drive control, robot batteries
