“VGo has provided connectivity to the school that some students may not be able to otherwise experience. The ability to participate in class, collaborate with peers and socialize as a typical student, have been extremely positive and rewarding for all.”

– Mike FlanaganAssistant Superintendent (and parent) Tyngsborough Public Schools, Tyngsborough, MA

"VGo creates wonderful opportunities for students to access their education when they are unable to attend school I can see tremendous possibilities for VGo’s users in the future and look forward to having this option for students.”

– Ann HuntingtonExecutive Director of Special Education, Newport- Mesa Unified School District, Newport-Mesa, CA

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 student or teacher in a distant location.
The VGo App – The software application runs on the studentʼs or teacherʼs computer and is used to initiate connectivity, see and hear what is happening at the other end, and drive the VGo.
