Its a monitor on wheels!! Give me a break.
The concept is good, and I think it is Step 1 (office with real people and monitors)
Step 2 everybody stays home, Skype call or something.

Reminds me of that Halloween episode of South Park where they cart around an iPad to represent Stan, who was stuck in Blockbuster. Hilarious.

1.58m (5' 2") frame, so your body is human size

You'd think they would want make it a more average human height. Especially when you consider that you aren't going to be at the top of it, so you're probably sitting at more like 4'8".
