Fighting the COVID-19 Pandemic with Robotics and Machine Vision could Combat Its Spread
利用機器人和機器視覺抗擊新冠肺炎大流行，阻止其蔓延
Robotics and machine vision play an important role in fighting the COVID -19 pandemic. Over one million people globally have been infected with COVID -19 virus. As the world continues to fight the novel coronavirus pandemic, leveraging robotics and machine vision technology can be a significant solution to safeguard people, control and prevent the spread of the virus.These cutting-edge technologies not only help in pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing processes but also inspect, identify, recognize, diagnose, provide assistance in treating the COVID patients.
機器人技術和機器視覺在對抗新冠肺炎大流行中起著重要作用。全球已有超過100萬人感染了新冠病毒。隨著世界繼續抗擊新冠病毒大流行，利用機器人和機器視覺技術可以成為保護人類、控制和防止病毒傳播的重要解決方案。這些尖端技術不僅有助于制藥和醫療設備制造過程，而且還能檢查、識別、識別、診斷、幫助治療新冠患者。
Automation is on the front lines to fight the battle against COVID 19. Robots are being deployed at medical service facilities to treat patients to minimize human to human contact.Autonomous mobile robots are bringing supplies to people in order to maintain social distancing.The following applications are gaining traction in this current scenario of pandemic.
自動化處于對抗新冠肺炎的前線。機器人被部署在醫療服務設施中治療病人，以盡量減少人與人之間的接觸。自動移動機器人為人們帶來補給，以保持社交距離。在當前大流行的情況下，以下應用越來越受歡迎。
Vision Guided Robotics
COVID-19 has turned increased focus towards vision guided robots, which can reduce unnecessary human contact at medical facilities and hospitals.For instance, Orrbec, a US-based company has collaborated with robot manufacturers in China where its 3D camera products are being deployed in robots for different hospital applications. Food delivery robots, sterilization robots, and directional guiding robots navigating patients between hospital departments, have been deployed across many hospitals in China.
視覺引導機器人
新冠肺炎疫情讓人越來越關注視覺引導機器人，它可以在醫療機構和醫院里面減少人與人的不必要接觸。例如，美國Orrbec公司與中國的機器人制造商合作，在中國將其3D相機產品部署到機器人中，用于不同的醫院應用。食品輸送機器人、消毒機器人和在醫院科室之間引導病人的定向引導機器人已經在中國的許多醫院部署。
Patrol Robots
China has deployed 5G patrol robots in public places, airports and shopping malls, which reminds people to wear face masks and wash hands, and monitors mask-wearing and body temperatures of people assisting police in prevention inspections.Guangzhou Gosuncn Robot Company has developed the robot, powered by an IoT edge computer (MIC-770) from Advantech, equipped with an 8th gen Intel Core I processor and GPU iModule (MIC-75G20) aimed at IoT applications.The robot has five high-resolution cameras and infrared thermometers that can scan the temperature of 10 people simultaneously within a radius of 5 meters.Any potential risk observed,like absence of mask or high temperature, results in an alert being sent by robots to relevant authorities, and a real-time response can be initiated.
巡邏機器人
中國已在公共場所、機場和大型購物中心部署了5G巡邏機器人，提醒人們戴口罩和洗手，并監控人員的口罩佩戴和體溫，以協助警察進行預防檢查。廣州高新興機器人有限公司開發了該機器人，由研華科技的物聯網邊緣計算機(MIC-770)驅動，配備了第八代英特爾酷睿I處理器和針對物聯網應用的圖形處理器iModule (MIC-75G20)。該機器人有五個高分辨率攝像機和紅外溫度計，可以在5米半徑范圍內同時掃描10個人的體溫。觀察到的任何潛在風險，如沒有口罩或高溫，都會導致機器人向相關機構發出警報，并啟動實時響應。
Delivery Robot Van
Chinese startup UDI developed a self-driven robot van, Hercules, for logistics application.It delivers food to lockdown areas.The robot uses LIDAR, stereo vision cameras, and deep-learning algorithms to drive itself, carrying up to 1,000 kilograms on its cargo compartment.The company plans to mass produce these autonomous logistics robots in coming years.
送貨機器車
中國初創企業UDI開發了一款用于物流應用的自動駕駛機器人“大力神”(Hercules)，用于向隔離區運送食物。該機器人使用激光雷達、立體視覺相機和深度學習算法進行自我駕駛，在貨艙里可運載多達1000公斤的貨物。該公司計劃在未來幾年大規模生產這些自主物流機器人。
Drones
Drones with specialized sensor and computer vision system are deployed to identify people with infectious and respiratory ailments.It has also become a key tool for safe transport of medical and other consumer supplies, medical sample delivery and aerial spray disinfection.
無人機
配備專門傳感器和計算機視覺系統的無人機被用來識別患有傳染病和呼吸系統疾病的患者。它也已成為安全運輸醫療和其他消費用品、醫療樣本運送和空中噴霧消毒的關鍵工具。
Disinfectant Robots
Disinfectant robots have been increasing since the outbreak of the pandemic.Danish disinfectant robots from UVD Robots have been deployed in all Chinese provinces to help fight the coronavirus.This self-driving robot platform, disinfects and kills diseases, viruses, bacteria, and other types of harmful organic microorganisms in the environment by breaking down their DNA-structure with help of UV light system.The production of these robots has accelerated, and sales are up in China, Asia and Europe.Similarly, Siemens and Aucma have developed a prototype of an intelligent disinfection robot that will soon be available to combat the virus spread.
消毒機器人
自疫情大流行爆發以來，消毒機器人的數量一直在增加。丹麥UVD機器人公司的消毒機器人已經被部署到中國的所有省份，幫助對抗冠狀病毒。這種自動駕駛機器人平臺，通過紫外光系統分解環境中的疾病、病毒、細菌和其他類型的有害有機微生物的DNA結構，從而對其進行消毒和殺滅。這些機器人的生產已經加快，在中國、亞洲和歐洲的銷量也在上升。西門子和澳柯瑪也同樣開發出一種智能消毒機器人的原型，這種機器人將很快用于對抗病毒的傳播。
These are just few examples where robots and vision technology have taken charge to meet the non-human labor demand in this pandemic situation.While demand for robotic and vision applications increases many fold in healthcare, medical and pharmaceutical sectors, robotics and intelligent manufacturing automation would be the key solution for manufacturing industries to mitigate the impact of present and future potential epidemic challenges. No one knows when this pandemic will end, but these critical automation technologies can be harnessed for the revival of industrial production, and it’s time that manufacturers upgrade their facilities with automation tools and digital technologies for safe and ongoing operations.
在疫情流行病的情況下，機器人和視覺技術負責滿足非人類的勞動力需求，這只是少數幾個例子。盡管醫療保健、醫療和制藥行業對機器人和視覺應用的需求增加了數倍，但機器人技術和智能制造自動化將成為制造業減輕當前和未來潛在流行病挑戰影響的關鍵解決方案。沒有人知道這場大流行何時會結束，但是這些關鍵的自動化技術可以用于工業的復工復產，現在是制造商利用自動化工具和數字化技術升級其設施，以實現安全和持續運行的時候了。
