A Peeping Tom? No, it's SoftBank's "Peeping Pepper" covertly watching a tourist purchasing last-minute gifts at a souvenir shop at Haneda International Airport in Tokyo on Saturday.

So why exactly is this robot programmed to "peep?

Pepper is just 'so' high too!
Well, a different view from a ceiling-installed security camera, and it is not like that shop is Victoria's Secret or anything.
Whatever!

Looks like he got stuck against a wall.

This is actually a pretty good countermeasure to shop lifting. These anti shoplifting robots need to be in yodobashi camera or other electronic stores too.

I see the robot being arrested for peeping, or joining the police to be a peeper. One or the other.

I heard about Soft Bank's usher robots at Haneda International Airport. But I have heard nothing of the Peeping Pepper. The robot is just assuming peeping position by pure chance?

Police should use these since it uses facial recognition and can identify foreigners and Japanese people apart.

Excellent point gogogo! The ability to identify certain ethnicities by facial recognition software is a massive help in fighting shoplifting, even the ability to predict potential shoplifters based on it. Legit crime fighter pepper, he a bro!
