Application of a Plug-and-Play Guidance Module for Hospital Robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper explores the design and development of an intelligent plug-nplay guidance module for hospital robots to recover the shortage of healthcare personnel in hospitals and healthcare centres in EU countries. The module is developed by using Orca which is an open-source framework for developing component-based robotic systems. Active RFID system is used in this module to guide patients or visitors to any known place in the hospital. If the patient or visitor is lost the robot will automatically notify the authorised hospital personnel. It is hoped that this robot swarm system will contribute to better patient care in hospitals.
