Spot, the robot HPD bought from Boston Dynamics has been used primarily to get body temperature checks for homeless individuals participating in HPD’s Provisional Outdoor Screening and Triage, or POST, program at Keehi Lagoon.
POST was created to provide housing to homeless individuals in outdoor tent-shelters during the pandemic while linking them to other social services, and is currently serving about 40 people, but once the robot is no longer needed there, it can be used for other purposes.
