<h5>New robot dog being used!</h5><p>In Munich, Germany, there’s a new plan to stop people from painting graffiti on trains. It’s a robot dog! The robot is called Spot, and it was made by a company called Boston Dynamics. Spot uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help it find people spray-painting on trains.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/newsahoot.appspot.com/Spot_2_31619048cc.jpg" alt="Spot 2.jpg"><figcaption>Spot checking the trains.

When Spot sees someone doing graffiti, it sends a video to the security team. The team checks the video and decides what to do next.</p><p>This robot dog is part of a test by two train companies, Deutsche Bahn (DB) and Munich S-Bahn. They are testing Spot for four weeks. If it works well, they may use Spot more often!</p><h5>Why do they need Spot?</h5><p>Graffiti is a big problem in Germany. People paint trains with spray paint. This costs the train companies a lot of money to clean them. It also takes time to clean the trains before they can run again. Spot can help stop this problem.</p><p>What do you think? Could robot dogs help in other ways, too?</p>

Spot, a robot dog with AI, is being used in Munich to stop people from painting graffiti on trains.
