Surveillance of the lawful exercise of constitutional rights, unless the surveillance is otherwise allowed under this chapter.

3. A law enforcement agency may not authorize the use of a robot to deploy a lethal weapon, unless the weapon is controlled remotely, cannot be activated autonomously, and is used to: a. Neutralize an inanimate object at risk of exploding or causing an immediate threat to public safety or property; or b. Prevent an imminent and substantial risk of serious bodily injury or death to a law enforcement officer or another individual, in a circumstance where the use of lethal force by an officer would be legally justified.
