Smartipresence
A cardboard telepresence robot to stay connected and move around in other people's spaces
Get closer to people you can't be close to with a robotic body for your smartphone allowing video callers to move around your in space.
A robot body for your phone! Whether you are speaking with a loved one or a colleague they now have the ability to move around for themselves. It’s as close as you can get to teleportation (at least by putting something together out of cardboard).
The 'pilot' (aka person on the screen) can move forwards and backwards, turn and look up and down or spin around for a little dance. Driving Smartipresence feels a lot like being present but only being 6 inches tall.
To invite someone in, just put Smartipresence online (using the app on iOS or web app on Android) and send them the link to the driving web app. They can see what the robot sees and drive it around from in the browser on their Smartphone, Tablet or computer. As soon as they start driving their face will appear on the robot's screen and you will be able to chat amongst yourselves.
