Nurses spend countless hours supporting patients, but who supports the nurses with their tough workload. With our Robotic Nurse Assistant, nurses now have the opportunity to offload some of their work to a robot who can efficiently complete monotonous tasks without causing unnecessary stress. With a simple voice command, the nurse can ask the robot to transport specimens around a hospital, provide troubleshooting advice on surgical devices and even open up opportunities for remote device connectivity within the hospital. With the use of Ultra-Wide Band technology, the Robotic Nurse Assistant is more accurate and secure with all of its tracking, locating and navigation services than many other devices made today.
