Transport Expertise without Transporting the Expert



Robotic Telepresence enables you to use a robot as your physical avatar in a remote location. The intended effect is increased throughput while simultaneously decreasing costs.

Unlike any existing collaboration solutions out there today, Robotic Telepresence let's you collaborate remotely as if you're there in person, giving you the power and insight that can only otherwise be achieved through travel.


Application Space



At RoboDynamics we focus on three specific application areas:

    Enterprise Telepresence
    Enabling remote employees to work alongside on-site team members by having a physical presence through TiLR. Learn more about Enterprise Robotic Telepresence.


    Industrial/Manufacturing Telepresence
    Enabling various stake-holders of the factory floor to inspect and troubleshoot remotely. Amongst others, Clients, Maintenance, Quality Control, Quality Assurance, and External Inspectors can have a physical presence on the factory floor at any time, from anywhere in the world. Learn more about Industrial and Manufacturing Robotic Telepresence.


    Inspections, Monitoring, and Touring
    As a more broad category, we enable remote inspections, monitoring, surveillance and touring of remote facilities via a web browser. For example, a building inspector can significantly increase monitoring throughput by completely eliminating travel from a day's schedule. Learn more about General Robotic Telepresence.




Facts and Findings



Since introducing TiLR to customers in Summer 2008, we've done extensive field studies about the different ways organizations are incorporating Robotic Telepresence into their business processes. Here are some interesting facts and findings:


  • On average 68% of conversations are initiated from the robot-side, despite all employees being available on IM, Phone, Email, and other collaboration tools.

  • 61% of users (after 4 weeks with TiLR) report that their job performance will be severely hampered if TiLR was removed. 100% of users prefer working through TiLR.

  • Two-thirds of team members (those who interact with the remote employee through TiLR) report definite improvement in Team Collaboration, Team Morale, and Overall Project Quality.

    Robotic Telepresence


    What is the value of being in two places at the same time?

    The answer to this question is the primary value of Robotic Telepresence. The ability to instantly transport yourself to to a remote location means the ability to transport the expertise without transporting the expert. TiLR - the power to be in two places at once

    Benefits


    Eliminate Travel and Downtime

    By having the power to instantly be there you can eliminate the actual travel to the remote site.

    Increase Throughput

    Visit 365 days a year, without leaving your desk.

    Maximize Collaboration

    Being there means an increase in collaboration and the free flow of knowledge and expertise amongst participants.

    Knowledge and Peace of Mind

    Many great collaboration tools like email, video conferencing, and telephony are used to get the job done,
    yet there is nothing like actually being there that lets you know, gives you control, and brings you peace of mind. And much much more...

    Applications


    While there are countless applications for Robotic Telepresence we are primarily
    focused on three distinct areas:
