IOT BASED VIRTUAL DOCTOR ROBOT

Project Title

IOT BASED VIRTUAL DOCTOR ROBOT

Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject Summary

The purpose of this device is to support Doctors/physicians who are unable to visit patients in person. This could be because of distance, location (such as for those in remote areas), patent immobility (due to illness or access to transportation), and/or costs. A virtual doctor’s visit can also sometimes be more cost-effective, allowing healthcare access to more people

Project Objectives

Our project deals with the modalities of the Smart Virtual Doctor Robot using the Internet of Things (IoT), a userfriendly health Robotic machine with an interactive user interface for medical necessities. The check-up/self-screening test is a virtual health system, aimed at the first point of contact for monitoring heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature. In case of an emergency, a doctor will be available online through a video call, based on the severity of the patient’s conditions, a call can be placed by a doctor to book an ambulance (based on the conditions). In non-emergency cases, the system will also dispense medicines prescription based on the health conditions. As an overall result, the Doctors feel the system can be adopted in an area where the medical facility is not available immediately. In such regions adopting this system not only help in medical emergencies/epidemic/pandemic such as COVID, but it also increases the percentage of survival. Our overall system is controlled and monitored using Microcontroller and IoT.

Project Implementation Method

Implementations in places like:-

• Hospitals
• Health Camps
• Nursing homes
• Clinics
• Emergency rooms

Benefits of the Project

Hence by using this IoT-based virtual doctor robot, the burden of a doctor can be reduced during this pandemic situation. The waiting time of the patients can be reduced. Primary patient monitoring and patient caring assistance with daily activities is achieved. For user-friendly, we designed a "Doctor robot" with a manual and autonomous control system. Doctors from anywhere in the world will be able to show the all-patient data without touching the patient through the IoT system and make communicate video calls with the patient. We believe this robot will go a long way in alleviating the lack of adequate doctors in medical services around the world

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The system makes use of a robotic vehicle with 4 wheel drive for easy navigation. The robot also includes a controller box for circuitry and amounts to hold a mobile phone or tablet. The mobile or tablet is used to hold live video calls. The doctor can use an IOT-based panel to control the robot. The control commands sent online are received by the robot controller. The robot controller operates over wifi internet. The received commands are received in real-time and the robot motors are operated to achieve the desired movement commands. Also, the root has other functions including a battery status alert to remind of battery charging on time.
