So this $21,000 rented thing just checks out door alarms when a door is opened by accident? And it only moves at 3 mph? And they think that the person who opened the door will still be standing there when it arrives?
Why on god’s green earth don’t they just aim a normal security camera at the door and call it a day?
That's what they say it's for. I'm sure its cameras and sensors won't be turned off between alarm checks
Even so, airports are already heavily monitored. I don’t see how it is any more or less invasive than the security cameras and TSA screening that is already in place.
This seems like a very expensive way to make the robotic equivalent of a fat security guard on patrol.
Each has their strengths so why not both?
Because even a fat security guard can go faster than 3 mph, and you don’t need heat vision to see who opened a door.
Except when it shoots your dog
