I, For One, Welcome Our Future Museum Walking Robot Overlords.

Take A Virtual Tour Of These Museums On International Museum Day. While I am on the subject of walking, talking robots giving tours of Museums, this page lists a bunch of museums that already provide virtual tours; albeit, not using remote operated robots. Much can be observed and learned by an Internet connected computer that follows an avatar around a museum and allows remote visitors to see and hear the great Museums of the world. I have used this tech to visit the Louvre in Paris, with the added benefit of virtual reality, which actually puts the user in place, and mimics physical travel in the remote space. For the disabled and homebound, this technology is the only way they will get to share the experience of the world's most interesting places.
