Ava Video Collaboration (avarobotics.com) facilitates
natural communication by offering freedom of
movement and two-way video and audio capabilities.
According to the company, users can immediately
establish a secure connection and, unlike standard
video conferencing, experience 'being' anywhere in
the world. Features and applications include:
The video-conferencing capability incorporates a
combination of high-definition video and audio, endto-end security for the enterprise, and integrated
Cisco WebEx video applications.
Users can look around, move, and "sit" or "stand,"
even in remote locations.
The robots map the environment and use AI (artificial intelligence) to safely navigate. There is no need
for the user to drive the robot or to understand the
remote location's layout. When users are done teleporting, Ava returns to its charging station.
Perform scheduling and control with the Ava Robotics App (Apple iOS and web browsers).

It's not difficult to see the potential Ava's robots have to change
fast-paced engineering and manufacturing environments.
Imagine an engineer who needs to collaborate with a production team, a mentor who wants to check on a new employee, a
technician who needs to address a production-line problem, or
a customer wanting to visit the manufacturing plant. It would be
ideal to have a person moving freely around the manufacturing
floor and interacting directly with the people that are involved,
but is not always possible or practical. EP
Based in Cambridge, MA, Ava Robotics is expanding human
potential by combining autonomous robotic mobility with
high-definition video conferencing. Leveraging technical heritage
from iRobot, the company's engineers are developing products that
enable workers to interact and collaborate, while easily and safely
moving through remote locations as if they are physically present in
the space. Learn more at avarobotics.com.
