Brenau University is planning on having 20 of the new Kubi computers by the time school starts again in August to connect its campuses together. San Francisco company Revolve Robotics has been shipping the devices since 2014.
Brenau University students will soon be able to “be in the classroom” even from remote locations thanks to robots the school will be using. A “Kubi” — a computer with arms for a tablet to be mounted on it — will allow students to control their interaction with a classroom and instructor. Brenau expects to have the technology in its classrooms by August.
