Perambulators are wireless, land-roving, telepresent
robots controlled through
the internet that go "hitchhiking" for you.
They interact with the people on their path using live video and audio
capabilities. The perambulator pilot controls
their movement remotely using a Java interface. The interface
displays the perambulator control panel and a
live video and audio feed of the person interacting with it. (see
PRoP
technology on research page.) Perambulators
can navigate indoor and outdoor terrain. People with perambulators
can share
their zeal with the rest of the world through
the website www.Perambulator.enthusiast.org. Here the participating
Perambulatorsí
adventures are broadcast in real time, 24-7,
and info and parts are exchanged.
