VR-controlled robots are being developed to treat injured soldiers

Some could very well conjure dystopian images of science fiction battlefields with AI-powered machine trading laser fires. However, in a much more humane application, UK researchers have seemingly developed a potentially life-saving medical system that might be a potentially life medical system equivalent to a VR video tirage call. University of Sheffield researchers have developed a telepresence system to treat military personnel during combat. This has been generally planned for offsite medics to don virtual reality headsets and control battlefield robots. The machine smartly takes the patient's vitals with the same technology used in robotic surgery.
