Service Robots in the Healthcare Sector

Traditionally, advances in robotic technology have been the manufacturing industry due to need for collaborative robots. However, this is not case service sectors, especially healthcare sector. The lack of emphasis put on sector has led new opportunities developing robots that aid patients with illnesses, cognition challenges and disabilities. Furthermore, COVID-19 pandemic acted as a catalyst development an attempt overcome difficulties hardships caused by virus. use are advantageous they only prevent spread infection, reduce human error but also allow front-line staff direct contact, focusing their attention higher priority tasks creating separation from exposure infection. This paper presents review various types technologies uses reviewed collaboration between academia industry, demonstrating research testing needed creation before can be deployed real-world applications cases. We focus how provide benefits patients, workers, customers, organisations during pandemic. we investigate emerging focal issues effective cleaning, logistics supplies, reduction errors, remote monitoring increase system capacity, efficiency, resource equality hospitals, related environments.
