A 14-year-old boy with multiple health conditions was given the chance to be the mascot for a football match on Monday — by using an iPad linked to a specially-designed miniature robot.
The white device in the photo below is known as a "telepresence robot". It was used during a match between Everton FC and Manchester City on Monday night to give Jack McLinden the chance to be the first ever "virtual matchday mascot", according to a story on Everton's official club website.
