Introduction

Joining a video call is easy. Moving around the room, choosing who to approach and seeing beyond a fixed camera takes something more. Mobile telepresence robots give remote users a physical presence, allowing them to steer a screen through a space and take part from a distance.

How well that works depends on more than video quality. Navigation, camera position, battery life and ease of control all shape the experience, while software fees and support affect the cost of keeping the robot in use.

This ROBOT24.com ranking compares temi V3, Double 3, Ohmni and PadBot P2 across five equally weighted criteria. Drawing on supplied market-research data and selected manufacturer material, it assesses their practical strengths and trade-offs to help readers find the right fit for their remote visits.
