How VGo Works
The VGo app
The software application runs on the user’s computer and is used to initiate connectivity, see and hear what is happening at the other location and to drive the VGo. The VGo app is available in the Apple app store.
VGoNet
VGo runs over the internet with the help of VGoNet, a unique cloud computing network designed to handle the complexities of a solution that requires real time AV communications and simultaneous robotic remote controls.
Audio and Video
Mute audio or audio and video, control the volume of your voice coming out of VGo or have the VGo speak for you with text to speak capabilities. Take hi-resolution photos & zoom video up to 5x.
Driving VGo
Users simply use their mouse pointer and VGo moves in that direction. Drag it more and the VGo moves faster. You can also use the arrow keys on your keyboard. Tilt the camera using the scroll wheel on the mouse or use your keyboard

Remote Patient Visits, Monitoring, Staff Augmentation, and Virtual Patient Intake
Remote Patient Visits and Monitoring
VGo addresses the challenges of resource availability and safety as providers can consult with patients without the need for travel or risk of infection. Patients can be monitored from a distance by driving the VGo to bedsides, helping reduce staff exposure to infectious diseases, and reducing the PPE required for patient visits.VGo increases social interaction with family and friends for patients in long-term care.
Virtual Patient Intake and Staff Augmentation
VGo provides health systems with virtual concierge services for patient intake by safely welcoming patients, completing intake activities such as registration and bill pay, and escorting patients to their care provider.
Education
Physical Presence for Homebound Students
VGo Telepresence Robot is successfully deployed in hundreds of schools for students who cannot physically go to school due to an illness, accident, or medical condition. VGo gets students back to a traditional schooling environment by providing a telepresence robot that replicates the student while they are away in a hospital. Students are empowered to operate their user friendly VGo in real-time. VGo enables students to receive the same instruction as their peers and move around and between classrooms independently. Students actively participate in a full school day with their classmates – both in the classroom and through socializing in the hallways and at lunch.

“There was an old Cris, the boy that existed before the seizures hit… they changed his health and his personality. He’s still a happy-go-lucky kid, but because he had no peer interaction, he became subdued. When VGo came into his life, some of that spark came back. Some of his personality is back. It’s an enthusiasm I haven’t seen in a long time.”
““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.”
“The VGo offers our team members the ability to join a meeting or conference in real time from a remote location, greatly enhancing our global collaboration experience. It has certainly made it easier for me to feel like I’m more engaged with the group at large while telecommuting, especially during those times when my physical trips are infrequent.”
