A company called 2Mar Robotics from Australia’s Melbourne Accelerator Program at the University of Melbourne is developing robots that allow people to be anywhere from anywhere through a robotic device known as Teleport. The purpose of Teleport is to allow people to be anywhere at any time without having to travel or increase their carbon footprint.
