Can robots handle your healthcare? By Nicola Davies. Summarized by Wout.[1]

The demand for healthcare robots will rise due to an ageing population and a shortage of carers. Japan is a leading country in the field of healthcare robots. They develop their robots in close coordination with elderly and patients.

Safety is an important aspect for healthcare robots. They must be absolutely fool proof. In order to safely operate around humans, robots need to feature things like quick reflexes, communication capabilities and interaction capabilities via video and audio. This translates into a wide range of sensors, cameras and actuators the robot needs to have. Next to a robot’s features, their looks are also important. Robots that try to impersonate actual humans, but still show imperfections can make users uneasy.

An area in which robots can do a better job than humans is being consistent in the quality of the care that is provided. After a long difficult shift, humans can be prone to errors while robots are not affected by exhaustion or other emotions.

For simple routine healthcare tasks, robots can be a good solution.


How medical robots will change healthcare By Peter B. Nichol. Summarized by Wout.[2]

A possible major field in future healthcare is medical nanotechnology, and more specific nanorobots. These robots will work inside the patient at cellular level. The most important stakeholders in robotic healthcare are not the people that develop the technology, but the people that will use it.

There are three main ways in which robotics can be deployed in healthcare: Direct patient care (e.g. robots used in surgeries), Indirect patient care (e.g. robots delivering medicine), Home healthcare (e.g. robots that keep the elderly company).
