A small robot may help children who are ...

A small robot may help children who are recovering from long-term illnesses in the hospital or at home.

These children may feel isolated from their friends and classmates.The robot takes their place at school. Through the robot,the children can hear their teachers and friends.They also can take part in class from wherever they are recovering.

A Norwegian company called No Isolation created a robot.The co-founders of No Isolation are Karen Dolva and Marius Aabel.The robot is called AV1.AV1 goes to school for a child who is at home while recovering from a long-term illness.And the child's school friends must help.They carry the robot between classes and place the robot on the child's desk.

Dolva explains how the robot AV1 works.She says,from home,the child uses a tablet or phone to start the robot. Then she/he uses the same device to control the robot's movements.At school,the robot becomes the eyes,ears and voice of the child.The child can take part in classroom activities from wherever she/he is recovering—whether at home or from a hospital bed.The robot is equipped with speakers,microphones and cameras that make communicating easy.It was designed to be tough.It is water resistant and can take a fall from a desk without damage.

Inside AV1,there is a small computer connected to a 4G network.A small camera hooked up to a small computer could do the job.But that would not be the same.AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason.Dolva says this is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children.

And robots are,quite simply,cool.The robot just became available to the public.Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they are absent from class.

Robert Ballard is probably the most famous deep-sea explorer in the past 100 years. While he is best known for his historic discovery of the wreckage(残骸) of the R.M.S. Titanic which sank to the bottom of the sea in 1912, he also discovered the wreckage of the Bismarck and the Yorktown. Over his career, Dr. Ballard has completed over 120 deep-sea journeys and continues to push exploration to new depths with new technologies and strategies. His new high-tech Inner Space Center at the University of Rhode Island links scientists all over the world and makes it possible to identify new discoveries in realtime.

D. in marine geology, who invited me to come to the University of California, Santa Barbara where I ended up getting my undergraduate degree in Geology and Chemistry with minors in Math and Physics.

Reporter: What’s the best piece of advice that anyone has ever given you that you can share with us?
