Teleport Brain Control

Published: Monday, 23 January 2017

We launched Teleport Brain Control, so that people with a disability may attend school or work remotely via our telepresence robot Teleport, controlled by their brain.  Check out this video we made with two of our users, Anthony and Chris!
