Shopping at the comfort of our home is possible nowadays by means of online shopping like in eBay and other online shopping sites. But it does not stop from there. A new and different option of shopping for those who are not willing to drive the road to the malls and shopping centers is the use of a telerobotic shopper.

Telerobotic shopper is a robot developed by TMSUK in Japan. It is basically a remote-control that provides an alternative for shopping without the need to step out of the comfort of your home. All you need to do is get your cellphone and control the humanoid robot from there. You just move and maneuver the robot around the shopping mall through your handset. That is enabled by the cellphone communications technology specifically the NTT DoCoMo’s cellphone technology. The telerobotic robot’s shopping performance was put to test at the demo in Izutuya department store in Kitakyushu, Japan. The demo included a granddaughter doing the shopping for her sick grandmother with the robot. The girl with the robot’s help picked a hat and bought it for the grandmother.
