Hear from VGo Users

"For a patient with enhanced respiratory isolation, VGo went in by herself and conducted a full interview and exam. PPE was saved and exposure reduced to zero."

How It Works

VGoʼs unique capability is its remote-controlled mobility combined with two-way video and audio communications.

The solution comprises two primary elements:

  • The VGo – The remote-controlled mobile device that represents the user in a distant location.
  • The VGo App – The software application runs on the users computer, tablet or phone and is used to initiate connectivity, see and hear what is happening at the other end, and drive the VGo.
