They blocked it in Austin too, but I can tell you from personal experience that it doesn’t make a difference. The cops don’t enforce it, which is the right stance for now, in my opinion.
Occasionally, state troopers will get people for weed inside city limits, but that is extremely rare.
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?
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.
