Thermal Imaging Cameras and Lasers used in Robot-Nurse
This robot is claimed to become a definite and familiar sight on Health Service wards. Some people say, that it lacks a certain human touch, so scientists keep working on it, and they hope that this "nursebot" will be able to clean and tidy, and maybe even attend patients. Scientists also believe that it could monitor patient's temperature with the help of lasers and thermal imaging cameras, based on the technology of Elcan Specter IR Thermal scope.
The main purpose of creating this device was to give a helping hand to busy ward staff. Most of all scientists and inventors of this machine will take over the mundane tasks, such as moping up spills, so nurses can spend their time with patients.
