Current Situation
Healthcare is labor intensive, and staff is often laden with manual, time-consuming, error-prone, and repeatable tasks that robotic and drone technologies could address. Robots are advancing to perform more complex locomotive and kinetic functions to sense environments and move across digitized facilities and locations on their own.
Goals and Objectives
Automate roaming, transportation, and delivery of items within a healthcare facility. The objective is workflow and IT systems integrations for automated navigation and realization of safety improvements. The objective is allowance of staff to realize productivity improvements through a focus on jobs and patient satisfaction rather than logistics and manual tasks
Technology Deployed
Autonomous mobile robots and drones
Wireless data connectivity: 3G, 4G, and 5G
Wi-Fi coverage, connectivity, backup units, sensors, and geofences
IT system and infrastructure integrations and digitized facility mapping
Use Case Summary
Safe, accurate, and timely handling of logistical tasks by robots and drones reduce workforce effort and costs and prevent errors.
