Dancing to the music
Do you love us? We at least think you’ll love this video guaranteed to have you in the groove—“twisting, shouting, and really shake ‘em down!” First, we’d like to properly set the stage with an update on the latest in medtech robotics.
This year, projections call for the healthcare robotics market to grow to $2.8 billion in revenue. A market that includes exoskeletons, smart prostheses and bionics, robotic nurses, and countless more proven assistance capabilities than we have space for here.
There are many advantages of using robotics in healthcare such as helping a facility save costs, reducing facility waste, and improving patient care. Ultimately, robotics technology provides sophisticated levels of measurability and traceability.
Already some nurse robots have made a name for themselves. In Thai and Japanese hospitals, Robot DINSOW monitors elderly patients via video and alerts caregivers of patient activity by phone. Robot PARO is used worldwide to reduce patient stress and improve relaxation with its baby harp seal voice. In two Belgian hospitals, a popular receptionist named Robot PEPPER greets people and guides patients to their proper department. Just maybe they can even dance like those in our promised video.
