Isn't this basic security guard job description? Fire lookout spotters, etc? It's totally realistic. Sit there, pay attention, and be ready to take action if needed.

- Volundr 6y agoAs someone who spent years working as a security guard... No. At least not in the way your thinking sitting at a desk eyes constantly on the cameras. Depending on the site we are expected to check and log them on a given interval and generally keep them in our field of view, but no one is under the illusion that there's perfect attention there. For higher security sites this is solved by having several rovers in constant communication and coordinatation with the (often multiple) people sitting by the cameras. So both the rovers and the desk are constantly doing not just sitting. Fire watch is the same thing. Your not just up in your tower eyes constantly peeled on the forrest, ready to react in milliseconds.
