AI Robots Assume Healthcare Roles Amid Worsening Worker Shortages
Countries with aging populations are increasingly turning to robots amid worsening healthcare worker shortages.
Robody is a humanoid robot developed by Devanthro, a Munich-based robotics company focused on creating humanlike telepresence systems. Designed to replicate human movement and expression, Robody allows a remote operator to control its actions in real time, enabling physical presence and interaction from a distance. The robot features advanced articulation, vision systems, and voice communication, and is used in research, healthcare, and remote collaboration. Devanthro’s Robody project explores the future of embodied AI and human-robot integration in everyday environments.
