Remote Presence Robots at Work (You won't see ConnectR doing this!)

Old folks are a perfect target segment for Remote Presence robots -- they need to visit doctors a lot, and mobility and access to doctors is often an issue. With Remote Presence, there may be no need to make the trek to a germ-laden doctor's office.

But you won't see iRobot's ConnectR used for this, I'm convinced. I'd be too worried grandma would break a hip.

Here is a link to a good example of this.
