In Thun, or more precisely in Dr. Leithold's practice, a robot is helping out. The orthodontist is assisted by a humanoid robot.

AvatarKids

Avatar Kids is a pilot project that is unique in the world and allows children and young people between the ages of 4 and 18 to stay connected to school and the environment at home during their long hospital stay. The avatar robot Nao is the link between the school or home and the long-term patient in the hospital. The avatar robot represents the child on site, enabling him or her to be "present" in real time and to participate "live" in school lessons.
