For e3 2016 Giant bomb should send two people and one robot.
This is what Giant Bomb should send to e3 in teh next year. Send this robot with two handlers, the guys at the studio in San Francisco take turns interviewing people on the floor. The camera on the robot takes show floor pictures, and of course it is SUPER newsworthy if Giant Bomb is at the show with a Doubletelepresence robot.
Dear Giant Bomb
I would support a Kick Starter to buy you a telepresence robot to send to shows. It would be fun, yet in some way it would also be sort of logical. You guys should not be at the show with tons of people and equipment, you should be at the show with a robot and two handlers.So, in fact lets think big and do this right so you could really cover a show with a robot. Let's say you need $10,000: two robots, two travel accessory kits, four iPads, and added tools and spare parts for quick repairs. In less than a day, you could raise that sort of money. And, you could use the telepresence robot around the office too. You could use it to have special guests on your video shows.
"...Richard Garriott, Portalarium's CEO & private astronaut, uses the Double almost every day to communicate with his team. From his home in New York, Garriott will call into his Double first thing in the morning and stay logged into his robot throughout the day. "It's so close to being there, that we often forget if for certain meetings if I was present physically or 'tele-robotically'," says Garriott. Executive Producer, Starr Long, believes that Double is the best solution for them. "It would be impossible to do our projects without something like the Double."
