Not really. This scheme is already implemented in one big French department
store (Lafayette?) in Paris. Webshoppers are assigned a "drone", basically a
young human male equipped with rollerskates, a headset and a helmet-mounted
webcam. You may then control the shopping drone as it roams around the shops
as you please by issuing vocal commands.
