“…Right now, in Japan, human-like robots are already being utilized as supplemental healthcare workers in elderly homes across the country. Larger robots can be used to carry out tasks like moving patients, and smaller interactive robots are being used to combat the loneliness and inactivity of the elderly population [43].…”

Population aging becomes one of the most significant 21<sup>st </sup>century social challenges. These challenges strongly reflect on the industry, labor, and financial markets. Population aging increases the demand for medicines, diagnostic equipment, and medical services. Both developed and developing countries have problems resulting from the current shortage of health workers and a limited supply of medical equipment. An alternative for medical staff growth is the robotization of medical services. However, robotics is economically justified when the costs of medical robots are lower than the construction of additional medical clinics and the increase in medical staff. Medical robotics appeared on the market later than the industrial and military ones but has recently found increasing use in high-income countries. Low and middle-income countries could not acquire expensive medical robots in sufficient quantities. The increased competition in the medical robotics market will lead to price reductions and make robotized services available for wide use. The article analyses the competition in segments of the medical robotics markets, connected with population aging.

The main goal of this paper is to make a multifunctional robot along with a database management system named “MEDBOT”. That will reduce the problem of spreading any viral or infectious disease by maintaining social distance. A robot is designed and implemented will replace the ordinary system in the medical sector in a digital way with fewer life risks. Being a multifunctional robot, it can perform as a receptionist, entertainer, nurse, cleaner, and deliveryman. As a nurse, it will check a patient’s temperature, Heart Rate, Oxygen Saturation, and Heart condition in a contactless way. Furthermore, these vitals are easily stored in its database system. These vitals are broadcast on the device’s display and server, where the doctor can quickly monitor them in real-time. A mobile application-based remote-control system is equipped in this robot to control it remotely. Moreover, a disinfecting system and UV-C light are used for sterilizing purposes. The previously invented medical robot can perform one or two tasks, but a revolutionary change will come into the medical sector by making this robot. At last, it can be said that the ‘Medbot’ can reduce infectious disease, save time moreover digitalize the medical industry by doing these works. Finally, building a digital Bangladesh, it will work along with the medical sector as a warrior.

“…Since the birth of intelligent beds, enterprises and laboratories have been committed to upgrading their functional characteristics [4]. The most significant representative is the multifunctional intelligent bed (MIB) designed by Metrocare company [5] and equipped with multi-DOF movement, which enables comprehensive patient monitoring and care by reducing the workload of nursing staff. Devicelink Company in the USA invented a nursing bed that combines a bed and a wheelchair to accommodate long-term bedridden patients by converting between bed and wheelchair configurations [6].…”

The authors propose a multifunctional intelligent bed (MIB) that integrates multiple modes of interaction to improve the welfare of mobility‐impaired users and reduce the workload of medical personnel. The MIB features independent autonomous omnidirectional movement, position adjustment, multi‐degree‐of‐freedom (DOF) movement regulation and posture memory functions to facilitate comfortable and convenient interaction for mobility‐impaired users. In particular, an integrated “MIB‐state perception‐interaction interfaces” system is established, and a bed fall risk detection algorithm and assisted get‐up‐transfer algorithm is proposed. By recognising and sharing human body state characteristics, nursing collaboration can be achieved with caregivers or other nursing robots. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that the MIB is a novel MIB that is highly adaptable to the environment, convenient to interact with and safe. By integrating the proposed algorithms, daily safety monitoring, assisted get‐up and defecation tasks can be effectively accomplished. This technology demonstrates excellent applicability and promising prospects for implementation in hospitals, nursing centres and homes catering to elderly and disabled individuals with mobility impairments.
