The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for remote diagnostics and tele-operated systems to protect healthcare workers. This project presents a semi-autonomous, 3D printed robotic system that incorporates augmented reality (AR) for orientation of the robot, being cost-effective. The system reduces user fatigue and musculoskeletal injuries associated with manual procedures like repeated ultrasound sessions done by sonographers. This system will address the shortage of medical expertise in remote areas as well as shield healthcare workers by minimizing virus exposure risks.

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for remote diagnostics and tele-operated systems to protect healthcare workers. This project presents a semi-autonomous, 3D printed robotic system that incorporates augmented reality (AR) for orientation of the robot, being cost-effective. The system reduces user fatigue and musculoskeletal injuries associated with manual procedures like repeated ultrasound sessions done by sonographers. This system will address the shortage of medical expertise in remote areas as well as shield healthcare workers by minimizing virus exposure risks.
