MedRobo Medicine Delivering and Patient Parameter Monitoring Robot

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we propose a robot named MedRobo with some functionality of providing medicine as well as to measure the vital parameters (Heart rate, Pressure, Temperature and SpO2) of the patient. During the current scenario, reducing the human to human contact in hospitals is required. In a bid to prevent doctors and medical staff from getting affected by Coronavirus the role of medicine delivering robots are evolving. We can attain the locomotion procedure of the robot using the principle of Radio-frequency identification (RFID) that automatically identifies and tracks tags attached to the objects. The movement and finding the path to patient location is done through a line follower and with RFID tag. Line following method is used to identify the path with help of two infrared sensors. The robot will move towards the patient's room by following a non reflective line and use RFID cards to identify the patient's room number. Using the vending machine the medicine delivery is made possible to the patients. All the measured parameters will be stored to the cloud using the application of the Internet of Thinking (IoT). All the data will successfully be sent to the cloud through the Node MCU. If the read values varied from threshold then a message will be sent to doctors through GSM Module. © 2021 IEEE.
