As soon as the connection is established, the PolyScope GUI on the robotic’s contact display will stream to the linked gadget display.
“As an alternative of the robotic supporter having to journey on-site, maybe spending an entire day on this, it’s now doable to diagnose and remotely function instantly, minimizing expensive downtime each for the end-user and the help supplier.
