This is not a robot...er, okay.


This monstrosity was seen careening the aisles in the local Giant Supermarket here in A-town, PA.  Asked an employee what it was and they said it was device that scanned the rows looking for errant peanuts and grapes so people wouldn't slip on them. "Grape down on aisle 3!" it would supposedly announce to an employee who would come running with a broom to capture the runaway devil. Instead of having an actual human being, you know, scanning with a broom saving the middle device. When my companion suggested it might be checking up on THEM the employee, or gathering data from customers' cellphones (sorry to be paranoid, but we live in a weirdo 5G world where my telephone is an unrepentant eavesdropper) they were less cheerful about their cute new robot friend.
