Taguig holds 'cyber-graduation' using robots
On Friday, May 22, a public high school in Taguig City held a 'cyber graduation' ceremony using robots to represent graduates due to coronavirus restrictions.
The Senator Renato Cayetano Memorial Science and Technology High School used four robots controlled by the school's robotics team to honor its 179 graduates.
Robots dressed in togas received diplomas while live videos of graduates were projected on their heads, with family footage displayed on an LED screen.
Taguig City plans to conduct similar ceremonies for all public schools in the city and announced cash incentives for graduates, including P1,000 for Grade 6 students and P1,500 for Grade 12 students.
