A robot who can go to the office for you...lol
Developed by Bob Christopher, a cute looking robot that's essentially a tele-conferencing system on wheels. The robot can alter its height from 3ft to 5.7ft and weighs 2.5st (35lbs), with a main computer and several mini-computers on board. It has an LCD monitor mounted on its head which feeds a webcam image of the telecommuter.
This information is then transmitted to the remote user via a web browser, who can direct the robot with simple keyboard commands. The robot is self-balancing and rolls around on two aluminium and rubber wheels at human walking speed. These Robots are going into production and will be available this fall for $15,000.
