Re: pic: the future of hall monitering

you might want to look at what the robotics institute of carnegie mellon U. has out as their new robot interface. TeRK The Te standands for Telepresence. The QWERK controller, of charmed Labs, immediately upon power up looks for the internet via wifi and connects. One can then control it and provide two way feedback via the internet.

I'm on a terminal on a break during classes at UT San Antonio so I can't post a link at this moment. I'll try and post one tonight.

4 hours later and I am home. Here is the link.

I thought it was a newer bot from seeing the backup battery, but the globe light threw me off, thanks.
