Major U.S. airport deploys giant robots to catch unmasked travelers
As air travel is getting back to pre-pandemic levels and airports are getting busy, travelers are still having to mask.
While many public areas are getting more lax about masks, the Dallas Love Field airport now has robots watching travelers.
“Yes, those 7-foot-tall machines at Dallas Love Field are watching you. They want to make sure you’re wearing a mask if you’re boarding a flight or not parking too long at the curb if you’re picking up a returning traveler,” The Dallas Morning News reported Friday.
The Love Field airport is testing two Security Control Observation Towers to see if robotic assistants can help passengers and also keep those in check who are breaking any rules.
The robots are placed near baggage claim and security checkpoints in the airport.
They can even notify law enforcement of potential crimes.- READ MORE
