A prototype robot called CrossBot is designed to protect kids in crosswalks.
The device has a more than 90% accuracy rate for detecting vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians.
It's equipped with sensors, including Lidar , a microphone, radar, video camera capabilities, speaker system and advanced algorithms.
CrossBot is designed to complement and enhance human efforts rather than replace them, Kulhandjian says.
The device could last a decade and cost a school district about $15,000 to $17,000 , he says.
He says he may add additional components to the robot, such as a large red stop sign.
