Planning too for my avatar bot to be able to walk down the road VIRTUALLY with Kengoro robot in a realistic virtual earth such as Street View / Maps / Earth / with TIME SLIDER ... and to be able to sail together both virtually and realistically (my Aphilo avatar and Kengoro avatar bot) as well as actually (Kengoro robot and I) ...
