Tele-presence Based Patient Monitoring Robot

Abstract

Tele-presence is a vast terminology incorporating techniques, methods and ways to make someone present at a location virtually to achieve a specific goal. Tele-presence systems can take many forms ranging from a simple software to a complex artificial intelligence based robots. In this paper, we develop a simple and cost effective tele-presence and multi-purpose robot controlled by both Wi-Fi and through web. Furthermore, the developed system supports live video streaming from any location as well as the video and audio transmission. The robot is tested for patient monitoring and a complete system is designed for this purpose.
