Design and development of a personal robot doctor for healthcare

The aim of this paper is to explain the design and development of a futuristic robot which can act as a personal doctor. This robot aims to act with the user interactively while it is connected to the cloud as well as human doctors. The robot can be used for real-time health monitoring in addition to provide basic health instructions to the user. The ultimate goal is to make the robot in a form of personal/social creature where everyone can benefit from it in home or office. This paper explains the early steps of development of doctor robot and in future we aim to improve this report in design, architecture, interaction and functionality aspects.
