A The two most common uses for Double are enterprise and education. Companies of all sizes, such as LinkedIn, GE, WeWork and Reddit, see great success with Double by giving their remote workers a physical presence in the office. This is a game-changer for talent retention, keeping up company and team morale, and building a sense of camaraderie amongst a distributed workforce. | A The two most common uses for Double are enterprise and education.

A I was worried that the biggest challenge would be acceptance of my co-workers to having a robot in their midst. Turns out the biggest issue I face, is with the campus Wifi network. We have good coverage in the areas where I roll around, but the authentication scheme on campus causes the iPad to fall off the network. When that happens, someone has to rescue the robot and reconnect me to the Wifi. After the network issues, I think opening doors, and turning lights on or off, are the only other problems I face on a daily basis. People are generally very kind and are happy to hold a door for me to roll through, but sometimes they mistake me for a signpost and hurry past. ** | A I was worried that the biggest challenge would be acceptance of my co-workers to having a robot in their midst.

A Yes. My coworkers decided I needed an office on campus, so they got a cubicle wall and put it up in the lab. I even have a nameplate and decorations on the wall. I don't have a desk or guest chairs, but I do have my charger. So at the end of the day, I roll into my cubicle and dock the robot which charges the robot and the iPad. I get a full day's use out of a single charge, if I turn down the brightness on the iPad; otherwise I get about five hours before I start worrying. So daily maintenance is simple, iOS updates to the iPad or firmware updates to the robot do require someone local to the robot to poke at the tablet.** | A Yes.

- | ===== 8 ===== | + | Q Est-il fiable ? |

A The response time is pretty good, I don't think we would win any robot battles, but for moving around the campus, it's a respectable less than one second. When I started driving the robot around I found myself reacting to movement with rapid twitch gamer moves, that resulted in some unexpected quick turns, but it did not take long to reprogram my hand-eye coordination.** | A The response time is pretty good, I don't think we would win any robot battles, but for moving around the campus, it's a respectable less than one second.

Quand j'ai commencé à conduire le robot, j'ai vu que mes réactions à ses mouvements étaient trop rapides et saccadées. Il en résultait quelques virages inattendus et rapides, mais j'ai pu reprogrammer ma coordination oculo-manuelle en très peu de temps. | ||
