    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.
