Autonomous Package Dispatcher Bot Using Video Processing

Abstract

Basic services, which are provided by hospitals to patients, are food, medicine, blood checks, hospital clothes, etc. To carry out these patient care services, there are other support services that are managed by the hospital. These services are most of the time invisible to users but they do affect the patient care services. The autonomous medical bot described in this paper uses camera and QR codes to dispatch packages in a specified geography. It takes the aid of a line marked on the floor to follow the required path using a camera. Along with delivery, locker security is provided which can only be opened by the one requesting for the service. An attempt to improve the quality of healthcare services provided by hospitals is made by efficiently managing all the logistics tasks.
