Medibot - COVID 19 Robot Nurse

At the International Islamic University of Malaysia, the pressure is on, while an eight member team is working on prototypes for a 'Medibot', a robotic assistant designed to carry out duties in behalf of health care workers with no risk of infection from the coronavirus.

According to AFP, Malaysian scientists have created a barrel-shaped robot on wheels that they hope will make the rounds on hospital wards to check on coronavirus patients, reducing health workers' risk of infection. "Medibot" is a 1.5-metre-tall white robot, equipped with a camera and screen via which patients can communicate remotely with medics.
