From January - May this year, I worked on the first prototype of the production model of my telepresence robot, Teleroo.
Teleroo was launched onstage at the Sydney Opera House during TEDxSydney on 21 May.
Thank you for making this happen! Thank you Dianne Boddy, thank you 2Mar team - we pulled it off! :) Thank you Remo! Thank you TEDxSydney team! TEDxSydney, you are the best TEDx in the world!
