MEDROVER: Medical Assistant Robot for Patient Monitoring and Treatment Management

This paper outlines the comprehensive design and implementation of MEDROVER, a semi-autonomous Medical Assistant Robot designed for patient monitoring and treatment management in healthcare. It offers user-controlled navigation via a mobile app and autonomous surveillance with real-time AI-driven fallen person detection. MEDROVER’s ultrasonic sensors and mapping algorithm create a 2D environment map for precise navigation, accessible through the app. The robot’s speaker facilitates humane communication via user-selected voice messages. The mobile app controls movement, video monitoring, voice messaging, server communication, map creation, and emergency notifications, enhancing healthcare services and supporting medical staff. Rigorous testing ensures reliable performance, making MEDROVER a promising medical assistant robot for the future of healthcare.
