This can be used as a teacher in schools and as a receptionist in offices too," Patel added.Patel said that as of now they have used plaster of paris but can beautify the robot with the help of a mask.Supratik Chakravarty, a professor in the Computer Science and Engineering department of IIT Bombay, appreciated the robot.In a letter to Patel, he said: "It is really a great development. Such a robot can be used in the field of education, entertainment and several other fields too.
