Design And Development Of Smart Healthcare Assistant Robot Patients Monitoring

Abstract

The main objective of this project is to present the development of an “Smart Robot for Health Assistance”. Most countries, particularly first world countries, are faced with an increasingly higher percentage of people in need of healthcare assistance, either due to old age or some disabilities or impairments, requiring prolonged care, constant examination, and following up the patients very closely. This pressure, both in number of and time dedicated to the patients, will put a strain on the current healthcare and social systems all over the world. Solving this problem, however, is not a simple matter, not just due to the lack of professionals but also due to the increasing costs of maintaining these services. The implementation of such a system would not only remove some of the workload from the medical professional, but also be more reliable in the long run, not suffering from attention, exhaustion or other issues that often affect us. With this system we intend to show the possibility of using robot platform in this context, paving the way for further development and implementation of such platform in hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
