The night watchman of the future is 5 feet tall, weighs 300 pounds and looks a lot like R2-D2 – without the whimsy. And will work for $6.25 an hour.

"There is a big difference between having a device like this one on your private property and in a public space," he said. "Once you enter public space and collect images and sound recordings, you have entered another realm. This is the kind of pervasive surveillance that has put people on edge."

Simply put an Apple logo on it,  call it an iCop and  people will love it. ;)
