Security Robots: A Qualitative Study

Abstract

While using service robots in security services significantly contributes to security services, it also brings new risks. This study aims to measure society's perceptions of security robots. In this context, the study tried to measure how security robots are perceived, the positive and negative aspects of their use, and the perceptions about their usage areas. The qualitative analysis method was used in the study, and data were collected using the interview technique with semi-structured open-ended questions prepared by the researchers. MAXQDA Plus 2022 software was used to analyze the data. The study sample consists of 56 people residing in Kastamonu. The data coded by considering the literature were analyzed using hierarchical code-subcode models, code frequency tables, cross-tabulations and word clouds. Participants think that using security robots in dangerous tasks and continuous work without autonomous mobility and under the constant supervision of the human element will be beneficial in the field of security technologies and will facilitate the activities carried out in the security field. However, it was also stated that these technologies violate the right to privacy, create the feeling that we are being followed in every aspect of our lives and diminish our privacy.
