Universal medical trailer robot Optimus Prime trailer design intelligent and efficient

Robots are invading various fields, even if they are not in the form they imagine. Recently, technology media Wired visited a hospital in San Francisco, USA, and the biggest feature of this hospital is that there are some unique employees busy in the corridor - Tuggy McFresh.
Tuggy McFresh doesn't have the shape of a robot you think of, like 3PO or Terminator. In fact, it looks like a trailer with four wheels, a large number of sensors integrated in the black area of ​​the front, and a variety of components can be installed behind, such as medicine cabinets, laboratory cabinets or dining cars, with an uninterrupted daily driving of about 20 Kilometers.

The biggest role of Tuggy McFresh is transportation, which sounds very basic, but obviously it works very much and is no worse than humans. In the hallway of the hospital, you can see Tuggy McFresh with different responsibilities, such as taking medicine, delivering food, transporting samples and even dumping garbage. But for non-humans, it's not easy to do this, and Tuggy McFresh's biggest secret is the integration of a large number of smart sensors and advanced navigation systems.

The black area in front of Tuggy McFresh can be seen as its "eyes": the array of laser, infrared and ultrasonic sensors integrated here allows it to easily identify obstacles around it, and if it detects obstacles ahead, it stops Go down and then go around. In addition, Tuggy McFresh also has built-in WIFI and navigation system. The hospital only needs to input the electronic map into the system and specify the route through the control panel (such as sending the medicine from the 3rd floor to the 2nd floor), Tuggy McFresh can automatically board. Elevator, complete delivery. More user-friendly, Tuggy McFresh will only enter the empty elevator, so it will not cause trouble to the staff or patients. In addition, when it walks in the corridor, it will also sound a reminder to tell you what it is doing.

In order to increase the utility of Tuggy McFresh, its manufacturing company Aethon uses a trailer-like design like Optimus Prime, so Tuggy McFresh is compatible with a variety of compartment accessories, such as drawer medicine cabinets, and more sealed assay cabinets. It is a dining car or a laundry car, so it has become the best omnipotent helper in the hospital. In addition, the capacity of the large capacity is also more efficient than the "human meat trailer." For example, Tuggy McFresh can ship up to 1,000 meals a day, or up to 450 kilograms of bed linen.

The head of the hospital said that Tuggy McFresh is very safe and efficient, especially in the early days of the hospital. At the same time, hospitals can apply the cost of hiring low-end labor to research and hire senior talents, which is positive and positive for the development of the entire hospital.

Transport robots are already in various fields

The field of science and technology has been worried about the "terminator prophecy" of robots, but in fact, robots with super artificial intelligence are still very rare, and various humanoid robots do not appear in people's real society due to technical limitations. From the current point of view, the most promising in the service market is a transport robot like Tuggy McFresh.

For example, Starwood's "SaviOne" robots at some Aloft hotels in the United States are designed to be similar to Tuggy McFresh. They can identify obstacles through sensors, walk through the navigation system, and provide towels and drinks for the living room. Well-known e-commerce Amazon, equipped with a large number of shelf robots in its warehouse, can realize shelf movement according to order information, and achieve more intelligent sorting operation with an accuracy rate of 99.99%. In addition, a hospital in Bristol, England, also launched an automatic distribution robot similar to Tuggy McFresh, but the scope of business is limited to food delivery.

So, are these robots stealing people's work? In some ways, yes, especially low-end labor. Usually in the European and American markets, the cost of hiring low-end labor is also high, and such machines require only one-time investment and low-cost maintenance, which is relatively more conducive to cost savings. But obviously, if they are gradually popularized, the employment of the low-end labor force may gradually become a problem.
