“#Egyptian inventor trials robot that can test for COVID-19<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n TANTA, Egypt \u2013 With Egypt facing a second coronavirus wave, an inventor is trialing a remote-control robot which can test for COVID-19, take the temperature of patients and warn them if they don\u2019t wear masks at a private hospital north of Cairo.<\/p>\n

Mahmoud el-Komy, who designed the robot, called Cira-03, says it can help limit exposure to infection and prevent the transmission of the virus.<\/p>\n

His creation, which has a human-like face and head and robotic arms, can take blood tests, perform echocardiograms and X-rays and display the results to patients on a screen attached to its chest.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tried to make the robot seem more human so that the patient doesn\u2019t fear it. So they don\u2019t feel like a box is walking in on them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been a positive response from patients. They saw the robot and weren\u2019t afraid. On the contrary, there is more trust in this because the robot is more precise than humans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cira-03 tests a patient for coronavirus by cupping their chin and then extending an arm with a swab into their mouth.<\/p>\n

Abu Bakr El-Mihi, head of a private hospital where the robot is being tested, said they were using the robot to take the temperature of anyone suspected of having COVID-19.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
