“…[ 9 ]. Most economically poor countries were not able to afford these advanced facilities, as there are various constraints apart from purchasing robots, which include their maintenance, training, and integration [ 10 ]. The increase in demand for these robots led to high consumption rates, eventually leading to scarcity [ 11 ].…”

Due to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, there is a remarkable demand for robots, especially in the clinical sector. SARS-CoV-2 mainly propagates due to close human interactions and contaminated surfaces, and hence, maintaining social distancing has become a mandatory preventive measure. This generates the need to treat patients with minimal doctor-patient interaction. Introducing robots in the healthcare sector protects the frontline healthcare workers from getting exposed to the coronavirus as well as decreases the need for medical personnel as robots can partially take over some medical roles. The aim of this paper is to highlight the emerging role of robotic applications in the healthcare sector and allied areas. To this end, a systematic review was conducted regarding the various robots that have been implemented worldwide during the COVID-19 pandemic to attenuate and contain the virus. The results obtained from this study reveal that the implementation of robotics into the healthcare field has a substantial effect in controlling the spread of SARS-CoV-2, as it blocks coronavirus propagation between patients and healthcare workers, along with other advantages such as disinfection or cleaning.

“…was possible in technologically sophisticated nations[14]. The upkeep, training, and integration of robots into existing infrastructure are additional costs that the majority of fiscally underdeveloped nations were unable to pay[15]. Due to the rising demand for these robots, there was ultimately a shortage[16] due to high usage rates.…”

In this study, With the increase and spread of the severe extreme respiratory disease coronavirus 2, or 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), there are new general health crises endangering the entire world (SARS-CoV-2). People have been afflicted with the Covid-19 illness as a result of its global spread. Other than the lack of specific therapy and vaccination, covid19 are known to exhibit a significant degree of ecological resilience. The infection was thought to pass from person to person, making an epidemic easily manageable.Droplets from breathing or sneezing that are infected cause the virus to propagate. Even in the air, these droplets can continue to exist on inert surfaces and spread illness to people. When faced with the requirement for a specific antimicrobial therapy, developing novel methods to stop the proliferation of infections is fundamental. The goal of this study is to create a spray decontamination system to fight the coronavirus (covid-19) using automation technology that utilizes the Internet of Factors. Besides that, a sprayer with a gas fluid incidental mix structure has been constructed to combat the issue of long-lasting splashier. The design includes an optical monitor for watching the sprinkling process. This foundation has been used to evaluate the robot's efficiency. The technology as it is now can clean a large area with little assistance from humans and in a shorter amount of time.
