Medical robots - the future of health care | APA Group

The COVID-19 pandemic has proved that hospitals are still short of qualified staff. One of the modern solutions to this problem is a robot assistant, an innovative device dedicated to the medical industry, which is to ease the work of nurses and doctors.
The project was created by APA Group in close cooperation with a German company KUKA and Silesian University of Technology.

That robot is a KMR iiwa which is around 400kg. I remember having to lift one of these with an engine crane after it ran out of battery too far away from the charger.

[@carsonchan5102]

can't they have a neutral gear for manual pushing?
and have a seperate battery module so you can swap

[@philiperomosele]

wow, this is awesome.

[@williamhuang5329]

Hanzhen harmonic drive gear , strain wave reducer, robot joint , over 30 years experience

This tech would probably be far less distressing than a humanoid robotic medical assistant for those patients who suffer from uncanny valley syndrome.

[@danielwhyatt3278]

I definitely agree that the whole uncanny valley thing is something that will have to be addressed massively in the future with robotics. It’s currently present in computer/video games and is going to start happening more so in animations so we are in a good position right now where we can be prepared for that in the development of robotics. Basically make it obvious that they are a machine, but you can still empathise with them as being something that is still intelligent or worthy of respect.

@@danielwhyatt3278 I think that the chat bot heads are a great way to introduce people to how non threatening , fun and useful that social and household
"Bro Bot's"really are.
I like the Alan Head chatbot on Will Huff's channel. He looks retro tech cool like a Moebius character in heavy Metal magazine in plain stock, but he has a skin available for the more modern sleek look.
He can do all of the basic AI home functions , and you can go with his standard charming C- 3PO style bot voice , or choose a celebrity download voice like Samuel L.Jackson with extensive story and talk references and different age appropriate language settings. ( Squee!)

But the real kicker this past week has been Sophia's big announcement. Elon Musk , Engineering Arts and Promo bot are all going to have some catching up to do .

I want a Baymax.

[@judithsixkiller5586]

Japan has robotic nursing assistants that can actually safely turn over or lift patient's from the bed or bath. It's name is Robear, and he's cute as a human size robot blue teddy bear can be! 🧸

[@hamzaarifmughal]

oh man come on use double 3 for video assistance or temi robot low budget and smaller in size

[@EmeraldView]

Not quite up to Star Wars medical robot tech.

[@thebigpicture5712]

🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@FLORIDIANMILLIONAIRE]

I want a beautiful nurse not a stupid robot when I get ill

[@sheryldt]

Orwellian 1984

[@danb.3397]

Well that seemed fairly useless.

[@alexismaribel8440]

Yeap, becoming an ai of our own..pills and more pills .ECT ..hummmm

[@CharleneTruncer]

Horrible idea. Soulless.
