So, it's not at all a robot but rather a radio-controlled, track-mounted, car mover. They are not very common, but they were designed for recovery of (failed) vehicles in multi-storey parkings as the "normal" towing truck is

I would add to that what I call "fractioning" of data (on multiple screens). We used for years (decades) a DOS based tool, where in a "conventional" 80x25 mask there was enough space for all the data we had to input (nav
