Facebook made Portal, the video chat device that follows you around. The only problem was it was made by Facebook. If almost any other company made that I would’ve bought it. The wrist fatigue from FaceTime can get pretty bad. Constantly worrying about being in the frame does too.

Swivl are more vendor neutral (I think) and work separately of the communications app on whichever device you place in them.

I had colleagues who put the tags on their children to act as baby trackers so they could monitor while they worked from other rooms.
