Nobot wants to put people to work ... in robot form

We hear plenty of discussion about robots taking over our jobs, so it's a refreshing change to hear about a robot designed to create them instead. Its name is Nobot, and what makes this machine unique is that it's largely controlled remotely by a human being rather than by a set of software algorithms.

The Indiegogo campaign describes the concept as being "like a person in a robot suit," which is a helpful way of understanding it – as long as you realize the person is sat behind a computer somewhere else in the world. Nobot owners get a clever robot to help around the house without needing to spend time programming; Nobot operators get to earn money from home.

Childcare, healthcare, gardening ... there's conceivably no limit to what Nobot could do. The plan is to set up a marketplace for operators and owners, so if you've bought a shiny new Nobot you can easily find someone with the skills and expertise to work it for you – even if you just want some company in the evening or someone to fold the laundry.

The robot unit itself is relatively low-tech, combining a tough plastic exoskeleton with a Raspberry Pi that handles most of the unit's operations. Each Nobot is fitted with a rotating camera, touchscreen, speaker, microphone and wireless connectivity. Of course the real smarts are provided by the human at the other end of the video feed.

That human element saves the Nobot team from having to program a sophisticated operating system. It also means Nobot owners don't have to spend an evening with a user manual to work out how to get the robot to do their bidding – they simply speak out the instructions as necessary and let the Nobot do its work. Owners can also operate the Nobot themselves, should they want to keep an eye on their home from afar, for example.

The inventors behind the project are currently aiming to raise US$19,000 on Indiegogo to make their product a reality. The early bird price for a Nobot is set at $399, with shipping expected in November if the campaign meets its goals. The video below gives some idea of the inspiration behind the idea.

我们听到很多关于机器人接管我们的工作的讨论，所以这是一个令人耳目一新的变化听到的??设计，而不是创建它们的机器人。它的名字是Nobot，是什么让这台机器的独特之处，它的远程由人而不是由一套软件算法很大程度上控制。

的Indiegogo活动介绍的概念为“就像一个人在机器人套装“，这是理解它一个有用的方法 - 只要你意识到的人坐在一台电脑中的其他地方落后于世界。 Nobot业主得到一个聪明的机器人，以帮助周围的房子，而无需花费时间编程; Nobot运营商获得在家赚钱。

育儿，医疗卫生，园艺...有令人信服没有什么限制Nobot可以做。该计划是建立运营商和业主的市场，因此，如果你买了一个全新的Nobot你可以随便找个人的技能和专业知识去解决问题为你 - 即使你只是想要一些公司在傍晚或有人折叠洗衣。

机器人单元本身是技术含量相对较低，结合坚韧的塑料外骨骼与树莓派能够处理大多数单位的操作。每个Nobot装有一个旋转摄像头，触摸屏，扬声器，麦克风和无线连接。当然真正的智慧是由人类在视频馈送的另一端设置。

即人类元件由具有编程复杂的操作系统保存Nobot队。这也意味着Nobot车主不必再花一个晚上有用户手册，以制定出如何让机器人做自己的投标 - 他们只是在必要讲出来的指示，让Nobot完成其工作。车主也可以操作Nobot自己，他们应该要留意自己的家，远远望去，例如，

该项目背后的发明者，目前旨在提高美国$ 19,000名在Indiegogo以使自己的产品成为现实。早起的鸟儿价格为Nobot定为$ 399元，与船预计11月，如果运动能够达到预期目标。下面的视频给人的想法背后的灵感的一些想法。
