My idea is a compact tele-presence robot that folds up into a mailing tube. You can mail it anywhere in the world there is cell service and the person receiving it can easily deploy it by pulling a handle and shaking it "awake". You could mail it to grandma and without having any computer or tech experience she can be talking to you in seconds after receiving it. The interface at your end can run on anything from a laptop to your phone and would allow you to interact with the environment and people wherever the robot is.
