The TeleVisitors are a line of odd and seemingly biologically built “robots” that are “programmed” to take care of children when their original caretakers are away. The TeleVisitors, with their TV heads, can easily display emotion unlike other robots in their field of expertise. No one knows who made them, but these TeleVisitors certainly know how to babysit. They understand human emotions and understand when a child needs to be left alone to calm down and/or think things over.
