A virtual panel on the needs for safe and remote handling of patients with infectious diseases and how robots can help. During the Ebola outbreak of 2015, Purdue's Prof. Richard Voyles was at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and organized a workshop to explore the Ebola outbreak, which resulted in some test robot deployments in Africa. Led by Prof. Robin Murphy, who participated in the Ebola workshop, the Purdue team joins with colleagues from the United States and China to explore current and potential roles for robots during the Covid-19 outbreak. The Collaborative Robotics Lab will host a virtual companion event on remote robot operation for all ages. Date and time subject to change.
