In the past few months, we have covered plenty of hospital robots that can provide people with information and make workers more productive. The RIBA II can do more than that. It can lift patients and move them from their bed to a wheelchair and vice versa.
The robot has powerful joints to crouch down and lift patients. It has smart rubber sensors to detect a person’s weight from touch and handle people gently. Robear is even lighter and gentler with patients.
