Smart Robotics for Smart Healthcare
Journal Title: Advances in Robotics & Mechanical Engineering - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
The technological advances in ICT, IoT and robotics have enabled development of specific, optimal service-based solutions for many societal issues and problems. Notably in the recent times smart, service-enabled robotics are being applied to impart smart healthcare solutions in healthcare domains like complex surgeries, elderly care, assistive technologies, patient care at home to name a few. This paper is devoted to highlighting how smart robotics is being and can be applied for delivering smart healthcare in varied healthcare perspectives and domain. Robotics in healthcare holds the potential to aid a number of practices and tasks[1]. Robots can be used to aid people with cognitive, sensory and motor impairments [2]. They can also act as caregivers to ill, injured or elderly people [3]. They are also being utilized in performing complex surgeries in a trained manner [4]. Since long they have also been used to go inside the human body and scan for varied ailments etc. Robots are physically embodied machines that allow precise and real-time movement of instruments and perform functions in an accurate manner eradicating chances of human error [2]. Advancements in technology especially the proliferation of IoT based solutions has transformed a normal human life into smart living through creation of smart environments, smart homes and smart cities [5,6]. Advancements in medical sciences have further created avenues for smart healthcare solutions [7]. This manuscript gives a brief overview of how robotics is been used to enable smart healthcare to improve human life.
