About Kubi Control
KUBI is the official app for KUBI, the robotic tablet stand for telepresence with cloud based controls.
KUBI means “neck” in Japanese, and that’s what it is, a neck for your tablet. When video conferencing, a remote user can log into a control web page over the internet and pan & tilt the display to look where they want and visually explore a remote environment. KUBI works with any video conferencing app that runs on an Android phone or tablet.
KUBI is a desktop accessory that allows video callers to adjust their own video feed with controls for 300 degrees of pan and 90 degrees of tilt. With KUBI, you're empowered to have a more natural interactive experience while video conferencing.
The KUBI app connects your Android mobile device with Bluetooth 4.0 to your KUBI robot. It runs in the background of your mobile device so you can use your favorite video calling app to video chat while your partner controls their own camera view with intuitive cloud based controls at http://www.kubi.me. Using only a web browser, KUBI can be controlled remotely from anywhere in the world.

Always drops connection within 10 hours so at least twice a day. My boss hella yelled at me because he couldn't connect. Accuses me of sabotaging the kubi. Then when I try to reconnect the scan always fails to locate the device. Can only reconnect if I use most recent devices list in bottom left. Scan button is worthless. App can't auto reconnect. So frustrating. C'mon kubi, there's just a few features in the app and they're all useless without connection to device. Using Android 5.0.2 on Nexus 7 tablet.
