Who is going to clean the robot??
- deaps 7y agorobot.clean_self()
- zentiggr 7y agoDefine the protocol, and leave the implementation to those pesky engineers :)
- ceejayoz 7y agoOne of these UV disinfectant robots: http://www.uvd-robots.com/ http://www.uvd-robots.com/
- hiccuphippo 7y agoIt's robots all the way down.
- java-man 7y agocould not clean the rollers
- ceejayoz 7y agoIt's still likely to be an improvement. I tend to doubt hospital janitorial staff are cleaning bed/equipment wheels between every patient currently, let alone things like the ceiling tiles.
- giarc 7y agoThe robot (self driving) part of it is just unnecessary. Why complicate things when there are staff in the hospital (porters) whose sole job is to move patients and equipment around the hospital. I say this as an infection control professional who works in a hospital and has experience with this type of technology.
- ceejayoz 7y agoThere are a lot of nooks and crannies in a hospital room. Requiring humans to move it around would mean they have to put it in a spot, leave the room, flash the lights, and then reposition and do it all over again, repeatedly.
- jacobwilliamroy 7y agoI assume they just send it through one of those drive-thru car washes.
