Expected to have wide applications in environments with high risk of infection, including COVID-19
The Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) under the Ministry of Science and ICT developed a remote specimen collection robot that eliminates direct contact between medical personnel and patients.
The robot system is composed of a master device controlled by medical personnel and a slave robot that interacts with patients. The slave robot is equipped with a disposable swab, which retrieves samples from the nose and mouth of a patient, and moves according to the operation of the master device.
The team applied remote control technology of parallel robots for remote sampling. The sampling swab of the slave robot moves or rotates according to the operation of the master device, and retrieves samples when inserted into the mouth or nose. The system also supports video and audio communication between patients and physicians.
