This handy robot was designed to remind people to wash their hands during the worldwide outbreak of coronavirus.

Filmed on March 10, the robot walks toward the camera while carrying a bottle of hand sanitiser and then shows a sign with the words "I washed my hands!"

The filmer, based in France, explained: "[It's] just a funny video using a robot that's used in a robotics class.

"The idea here is to share a good practice against coronavirus - washing your hands - without the alerting tone that's usually heard these days."
