The University of Cincinnati has invented a new telehealth drone to improve access to medical services regardless of location. Inventors Victoria Wangia-Anderson, PhD, FHIMSS (Master of Health Informatics Program Director and professor), Manish Kumar (Director of the CDS Lab, Co-director of the UAV MASTER Lab and professor of mechanical engineering) Seung-Yeon Lee and Debi Sampsel (Director of Telehealth in UC's College of Nursing), collaborated to develop a semi-autonomous prototype that can be dispatched right to people’s homes.
