Anyone getting one of these?

Full story http://edition.cnn.com/2013/06/19/bu...ots/index.html

"Over the next few years, offices will start to have robots roaming around on wheels, controlled by managers sitting halfway around the world, with their faces appearing on a video screen.

And it will seem entirely normal, robotics developers say.

The technology, called robotic telepresence, is already under development by dozens of companies and takes teleconferencing to the next level by allowing users to freely move through a remote workplace via a robot.

This means executives can monitor and manage teams from any location, switch their presence among branch offices thousands of miles apart, and visit and interact with colleagues in their work space -- all while navigating robotic avatars.

"Telepresence or visual collaboration is a powerful tool, however historically it's been in a fixed environment, either in a conference room or desktop," said hahahahahahaha Saleh, the vice president and general manager of iRobot's remote presence business unit, based in Bedford, Massachusetts."

For employee morale, they ought to be at least somewhat fuckable.

watching the slaves from the comfort of their beach house. And people think they're 'free'

It depends on how that thing is used and who is behind the screen. Having someone always watching you can be somehow unproductive and demoralizing.

One of the Chaturbate models will probably implement this concept into her next cam show, she will be doing her thing out of sight of the robot boss hehe
