Recently it is observed that
the research advancement is very significant in the field of deployable
robots for healthcare sector. Considering the current pandemic situation
where social distancing is must- healthcare robots can be deployed very
easily to perform the manual task resulting in reduced human efforts.
In this paper, the design and implementation of an affordable, versatile
system is proposed. The system is IoT enabled to meet the current
demand and it can be controlled from any platform. The prototype can
follow through lines and recognize hospital beds, can autonomously
distribute medicines, record patient vital signs, and also has obstacle
avoidance capabilities. There's also a 5-DOF arm, which is controllable
over wireless medium by hand gestures. The IoT website can control the
robot, record medicines, and view patient vitals' data. This work is
intended to leave an impact on the healthcare sector of developing
countries.
