ABSTRACT
Remote healthcare is a well-accepted telemedicine service that renders efficient and reliable healthcare to patients suffering from chronic diseases, neurological disorders, diabetes, osteoporosis, sensory organs, and other ailments. Artificial intelligence, wireless communication, sensors, organic polymers, and wearables enable affordable, non-invasive healthcare to patients in all age groups. Telehealth services and telemedicine are beneficial to people residing in remote locations or patients with limited mobility, rehabilitation treatment, and post-operative recovery. Remote healthcare applications and services proved to be significant during the COVID-19 pandemic for both patients and doctors. This study presents a detailed study of the use of artificial intelligence and the internet of things in applications of remote healthcare in many domains of health, along with recent patents. This research also presents network diagrams of documents from the Scopus database using the tool VOSViewer. The paper highlights gap which can be undertaken by future researchers. © 2023 IEEE.
ABSTRACT
In the world of digitalization and automation, there were astonishing myths coexistent that were not only surprising, but also incredible. Whilst the move is on to usher into the world of automation, where even the manufacturing units are devising the methods to automate their functions, it is only ironic to note that people have also developed several myths on using a robot. For one, robots have been associated with a device that would take away one job. For another, a robot is considered risky as if it will start ruling the very person that made it. Apparently, a research gap exists that needs to be plugged along with the understanding gaps to demystify the use of robots. COVID-19 has brought the world to such a stage where companies are now rethinking about the use of robots. This paper is written to explain the use of robots, clarify the need of robots in the society and present the growing demand of this technology. A research was also conducted to present the availability and state-of-art robot technology. It was also shown in the paper as to how some domains like health care are in dire need of robots, as the pandemic continues to wreak havoc on society. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
