Robotic security kiosks have begun checking whether visitors are wearing masks at Love Field in Dallas and at a couple of Six Flags facilities, according to a fortune.com report.

The 7-foot tall Security Control Observation Towers near baggage claim and security checkpoints at Love Field can determine if a passenger is wearing a face mask and issue a verbal warning if they are not.

The system, which has deployed on a test basis, can also summon on-site security or the police if needed.

A robotic guard called ROAMEO (Rugged Observation Assistance Mobile Electronic Officer) debuted at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington a few months ago, while another began patrolling Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California.
