My grocery store has added an automated narc cam that plays back a video of you putting the item into the bag when it thinks you didn't scan it.
When do they play this video? While you are in the middle of scanning items through the self-checkout or when you complete it? Is it accompanied by a frowny face or some other sign of disapproval to shame you?
After you bag the offending item. The video plays and a loud voice passive-aggressively reminds you to make sure you've scanned everything before bagging.
It does this if you go too fast too. Even if you're not stealing.
