We have technology that the Stasi could only dream about. Major League Baseball games have been taking place in empty stadiums. When fans return, they had better wear masks.

Bloomberg reports that California startup Airspace Systems has been in talks with several MLB teams to implement systems that would use cameras positioned around the stadium to identify people who are not wearing a mask, or who are not wearing one properly.

The software doesn’t do facial recognition, so more work will need to be done in the future to integrate it with online informant tools.

On a tip from Lyle.
