Ubiquitous Internet: A Boy and His Bot

Our mantra is that communities need fast, affordable, and reliable access to the Internet. We imply universal access, but another key word should be ubiquitous. As new applications are integrated into our modern life, particularly those related to health care, dead zones could actually endanger our health!

The attached video has some scenes that show the robot in school. This video is no longer available.
