Despite this, it has a certain degree of automation. This is why it could become an ideal tool for working remotely. This representative from Mexico competes against others from the US, UK and more countries.
In back of Prometheus is the company inbiodroidwhich is dedicated to developing anthropomorphic robotic telepresence systems.
Currently, those responsible for this Mexican robot seek to raise $10 million pesos via the campaign Prometheus Telepresence Avatar Robot. Everything so that you can compete as well as possible for ANA Avatar X Prize.
