About Pharmy I-Robot Yeselula Ezimeleyo
Irobhothi yokuzula yokuhamba kwezinto ezilungiselelwe isibhedlele. Yinkqubo yenkonzo yemveliso ukwenza ukuhambisa okukhuselekileyo okusebenzayo, ukunciphisa amathuba ochwepheshe wezempilo ukuba abonakale egula, kuthintelwe izifo zobhubhane phakathi kwabasebenzi basesibhedlele kunye nezigulana (COVID-19 or H1N1). Uyilo luyanceda ukuphatha ukuhanjiswa kwesibhedlele ngokufikelela ngokulula kunye nokhuseleko, kusetyenziswa unxibelelwano olulula lwabasebenzisi ngetekhnoloji enobuhlobo. Iiyunithi zeerobhothi zinokwazi ukuhamba ngokuzimela kwimeko yangaphakathi kwaye ziye zangqamanisa ukuhamba kunye neeyunithi ezifanayo, ukukwazi ukwenza umsebenzi weqela lerobhothi.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- Autonomous navigation robot for hospital medicine distribution. Its design is a product-service system to perform the logistics service, bringing efficiency, cost reduction and safety, decreasing the chances that you will be exposed and get sick, restraining a pandemic (COVID-19). Its design should provide for the handling and delivery of loads in a hospital environment in a non-invasive manner, safe and with easy interaction to the user, through friendly technology.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Product dimensions: Width 460 mm x Depth 460 mm x Height 1100 mm
- Tags
- AMR, PSS, Product-service Design System, Autonomous Robot, Health
- Production Technology
- The manufacturing process uses the following technologies: metal stamping and plastic injection. The product receives in some parts that composes it, the epoxy painting process as well. The materials used are: carbon steel, 304 stainless steel rollers, ABS plastic, nylon, armor-plated bearings and LEDs.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was to promote the efficient management of an interdisciplinary project involving several stakeholders (designers, engineers, nurses, doctors, patients and IT professionals). The project should integrate both uses, hospital and factory and follow international rules regarding the hospital environment (safety, hygiene, asepsis, etc.) and indoor logistics (factories or other commercial establishments).
- Research
- Desk Field, Focus Groups, Consumer Insights, Trend Mappings. We collect all data through immersive process including consumer, designers and multidisciplinary teams (marketing, engineer, anthropology, etc.). Objective: Bring innovation and differentiation to Latin America market. Method: Consumer-Centric Insights with Design based approach to solving problems. Steps: Research (map and understand), Conceptualize (alternative generation), Visualize (renderings), Realize (prototype) and Implement.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by Latin American hospitals, where health professionals are improperly allocated and get exposed to pandemics diseases as Coronavirus (COVID-19) or H1N1 influenza. As consequence, patients receive less attention or the hospital is forced to bear the cost of hiring professionals. Pharmy is an innovator in this market, delivering efficiency, convenience and reducing operating costs. The product also provides the flexibility to be used in other environments (industry, commerce).
- Project Duration
- The project has started in June 2019 and finished in December 2019. All project and development has been made in Brazil.
- Operation Flow
- Pharmy is a single unit robot or network synchronized system, used in hospitals and factories logistics. It is composed by a robotic structure attached to 5 drawer cabinet or chest. It maps the environment and supply medicines at the nursing station. Each drawer has independent digital opening, ensuring safe and individual access. The unit is loaded and starts the autonomous navigation to delivery point through corridors, in low speed, accessing elevators and avoiding obstacles or people.
