Paper Title
Simulation of A Medicine-Serving Robot Designed in Fusion 360 Using Ros and Gazebo
Abstract
The world's population is rapidly increasing and will continue to grow in the coming years. A considerable percentage of this population suffers from various diseases, with airborne diseases spreading particularly quickly. Providing proper medication to patients without direct interaction presents a significant challenge. This paper proposes an assistant delivery robotic prototype that is simulated and navigated autonomously in a ROS (Robot Operating System) environment. The robot analyzes its surroundings using LiDAR technology. The aim is to enhance autonomous healthcare delivery systems by improving navigation and object detection. The robot utilizes LiDAR sensors to capture a map of its environment, facilitating real-time detection of obstacles and its avoidance. The architecture of the system, hardware, its assembly and software components and the methodologies employed for environmental analysis are detailed. This prototype introduces a method to access the robot’s environment. Future modifications can further improve navigation within the environment.
