HEALTHCARE ROBOTICS AS A SERVICE
HRaaS Framework Design and Development
A ERDF Welsh Government funded project, addressing the massive challenges for daily healthcare services care hospitality due to pandemic. The research aims to develop and pilot a novel smart robotic platform, HRaaS (Healthcare Robots as a Service), to perform frontline initial contacts, disinfection, assistive care services, human-robot companionship, distraction procedures, tele-care, home-healthcare and hospitality with human-machine learning an intelligent decision-making interface in hospital and care home settings.
We bring bionic-inspired robot into the real world.
We train and upskill healthcare staff to manage and work with AI as their personal assistants.
KEY SUCCESS
“A personalised healthcare companion, a robotic assistant to be installed in key hospitals & homes are recommended. The UK government to support the Universities-hospital-robotic industry collaborations. Universities and companies that have expertise in AI and robotics can partner with local hospitals to develop personalised robotic assistants.” (Chew, UK Parliament, 2018)
