rp7 robotA new medical robot has been developed by In Touch Health. The main feature of this robot is tele-presence. It allows a doctor to be at home, yet wander the halls of the hospital and consult patients. The doctor would be at home on his computer with a video camera and a joystick. At the hospital, patients would see and hear the doctor through the robot RP-7. Seems like something Principal Skinner of Springfield High could use to monitor his halls. The robot is currently in use at Healdsburg District Hospital in California.
