Design And Manufacture Of Medication Delivery Robots For Hospitals
Abstract: Design and manufacture of medication delivery robots for hospitals describes the evolving role of robotics in healthcare and allied areas with special concerns relating to the management and control of the spread of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The prime utilization of such robots is to minimize person-to-person contact and to ensure cleaning, sterilization and support in hospitals and similar facilities such as quarantine. This will result in minimizing the life threat to medical staff and doctors taking an active role in the management of theCOVID-19 pandemic. The intention of the present research is to highlight the importance of medical robotics in general and then to connect its utilization with the perspective of COVID-19 management so that the hospital management can direct themselves to maximize the use of medical robots for various medical procedures. This is despite the popularity of telemedicine, which is also effective in similar situations. In essence, the recent achievement of the Korean and Chinese health sectors in obtaining active control of the COVID-19 pandemic was not possible without the use of state of the art medical technology. The advent of medicine delivery robots marks a significant advancement in healthcare technology, promising to revolutionize the way medications are administered within healthcare facilities. This abstract explores a novel approach to medicine delivery, employing Raspberry Pi as the primary processor and motor driver to facilitate precise movement and control. Furthermore, the integration of a facial recognition system, powered by the Haar cascade algorithm and utilizing a Pi camera, ensures secure and accurate delivery by identifying patients before dispensing medication. By leveraging these technologies, healthcare professionals can streamline medication distribution processes, reducing the potential for errors and unauthorized access while enhancing overall efficiency. Moreover, automation in medicine delivery liberates healthcare staff from repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on more meaningful patient interactions and clinical responsibilities. This abstract underscores the transformative potential of robotics and advanced computational algorithms in optimizing healthcare delivery systems. As these technologies continue to evolve and become more sophisticated, medicine delivery robots hold the promise of improving patient outcomes, enhancing safety, and ultimately reshaping the landscape of healthcare delivery

Specification
Description:The goal of this work is to Medicine giving out is a vital procedure in a hospital ward. We implemented robot, exact time robot moves on path. Our nurse robot finds the path using. To speak to patients about medicine using voice playback device. Here controller is used as a Raspberry Pi module. Voice play back is used for the sound indication. Battery used is the lead acid battery and its operating voltage is the 12v. LCD is used for displaying the time. DC motor is used for running the motor but it is not directly connected to the micro controller so DC motor drive is used.Camera is used to check the patient conditions if any condition is critical send sms to concern doctor. Time to time medicine dispensing as per the requirements accordingly. Here we are designing robot in 2 modes automatic and manual mode. These robots are meant to assist doctors in the hospital in the same manner as that of human nurses. Medicine delivery robots are commonly used in Japanese hospitals as Japan has the highest percentage of elderly (above 75
years) individuals among OCED countries. This poses a growing challenge for the medical facilities in the country. Without sufficient recruitment for elderly care, more Japanese citizens are socially bound in taking care of aging family members at home instead of doing a job. In addition, the nursing and healthcare individuals undergo high stress and exhaustion due to patient load.
, Claims:1. The proposed system claims to build an automatic medicine dispenser.
2. To measure the heart rate of a human body using pulse rate sensor.
3. To Develop suitable algorithms for Face Recognition and Training and testing the robots.
4. To arrive with the Benchmarks and Assumptions based on the Previous works undertaken.
5. To Implement the Algorithms on suitable Hardware Platforms and to document performance measure of the Algorithms.
