UC inventors developed a semi-autonomous prototype that can be dispatched to people’s homes. The drones will have cameras and a display screen so patients can speak directly to a medical provider.
Unlike other drones that rely on controllers to have a line of sight and communicate by radio, this drone is able to be semi-autonomous because it combines artificial intelligence with sensors and a navigational algorithm, developed by UC engineers.
Although still in the pilot phase, the drones are large enough to carry medicine, medical supplies and self-administered lab tests, but small enough to navigate through a person’s home.
