Yangquan city has recently introduced a robot legal adviser to provide information about the law. 

The 70-centimeter-tall robot serving in Xinyuan community has a camera mounted on its head and a display screen on its chest, which displays legal documents and information, offers help from online experts, and plays short films about the law.

The robot contains a large database with more than 3,000 legal provisions and thousands of short films available to the public. 

It is capable of quickly answering legal questions made through voice commands and displays answers on the screen. Residents can also freely use the display screen to find information.

When given an order, the robot can walk according to the command. It will automatically find a charger when the battery runs low. 

The robot has already delivered several law lectures in the community.
