KUBI - the robotic stand for iPads and tablets | Indiegogo

Imagine being able to physically look around and interact with remote environments during video calls on your iPad or other tablet. Picture the difference in the quality of your interactions if you had the ability to control your own view, to address people individually, and follow the action as it happens. You could free others from the burden of managing the camera if only you had the power to control the view over the web...

This is the reality of video calling with KUBI. KUBI means “neck” in Japanese, and is a web-controlled robotic stand that mimics the range and function of your own neck, giving the remote iPad ability to pan and tilt to look around. You can use intuitive web apps to elevate your video calling experience from video chat to telepresence, interacting with friends, family, and colleagues around the globe.
