How the smart stadium will transform the smart city...

What’s the difference between a monster truck rally and a Taylor Swift concert?

Water. You can’t hold a monster truck rally without thousands of cubic meters of mud, which in turn can mean tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of gallons of water.

This is not surprising as when the idea of a security robot comes to mind, you are inclined to think of robots like Robocop or Atlas rather than Pepper.
