This handsome anime-style security guard will be protecting actual home and offices in Japan

The Virtual Security Guard is a multi-company project headed by Secom, Japan’s leading home and office security company, with telecommunications giant Docomo also contributing its know-how.

Oh, and if you’d prefer your high-tech AI security system to not only have a humanizing touch, but a feminine one as well, there’s a female Virtual Security Guard too.

The Virtual Security Guard isn’t just for thwarting evildoers, though.
