"My robot makes me feel like I haven't been forgotten"

The small, cute-looking robot, made my Oslo-based start-up No Isolation, sits in the classroom and live streams video and audio back to Zoe’s tablet or smartphone at home. She can speak through the robot and take part in lessons, also controlling where AV1 is looking.

When she wants to ask a question the robot’s head starts blinking on and off to alert the teacher. And when she’s too tired or sick to participate she can turn AV1’s head blue as a signal.

“It makes my life a lot more exciting and makes me feel like I haven’t been forgotten,” Zoe says.

With the robot’s help she was able to take five GCSE exams this year.
