The Swivl Robot is an innovative video capture system that allows teachers to record video of lessons, teaching materials for a flipped classroom, and teacher or student observations.
You can also connect with remote students during hybrid and distance learning. The robot tracks the teacher and captures the teacher’s voice during a live streaming session. The teacher can hear remote students through a variety of audio setups.
