Shoppers at Walmart may no longer have to ask for help when they need assistance.

The retail chain is looking into new facial recognition technology to give customers a hand.

The company has filed a patent to use a video system that would keep tabs on shoppers’ facial expressions. If the technology senses that a customer is frustrated, a worker will be there to help solve any problems.

There’s no word yet on when the system might be tested.
