Kobe Youth Science Museum
Online tour with Telerobot temi [Hyogo Prefectural Children's Hospital, Tomoyo Support School ~ Bando Kobe Science Museum]
Children from Hyogo Prefectural Children's Hospital and Tomoyo Support School used the telepresence avatar robot temi to remotely tour the Bando Kobe Science Museum with children who visited!
Temi was placed in various places in the science museum, allowing visitors to talk to it and listen to explanations about various experiments, making for a very flexible tour. Temi is equipped with AI and follows people even when they have their back turned, so all the participants enjoyed the tour of the museum while feeling as if they were in the same space. It was also well received for being easy for even children to operate, and it was decided that Temi would be used in future tours of the museum.
