advanced telepresence robots with limited resources, light weight and affordable price thanks
to small telepresence robots. Like advanced telepresence robots, these small two wheel based
platforms can use advanced mobile devices for communication and
control.Helios,Mobiton,Botiful or Kubi are examples of this type robots. Also some non-
commercial telepresence robot are available in market such as PEBBLES,ProB,Mobi,meBot
and Texai.These product generally used for research and school.
