Introduction Vestre Viken is a Norwegian HealthCare provider consisting of: Drammen hospital • 8 Clinics • 4 General hospitals The largest of Vestre Viken facility locate in • 17 Ambulance stations Drammen, Norway, servicing over 160 000 • Multiple mental health and substance inhabitants. Area functions within: Neurology, Pediatrics, abuse treatment facilities Cardiology, and much more • 9,500 Employees Vestre Viken has chosen Altran Norway AS in partnership with Mektron AS for the POC development of an Automatic Logistics System for the Drammen Hospital

Vision Creation of a adaptive system of self-organizing Mobile Industrial robots. self-organized systems", find the best solution for their problems "without intervention". • The main feature, is flexibility, since a multi-agent system can be added • to, modified and reconstructed, without the need for detailed rewriting of the application Complex events managed by simple rules • Mimicking swarm intelligence in nature • 4

Inspired by Nature 5

The Robotic technology Autonomous Systems able to:  Sense - feel human touch and watch  Manipulate – able to grip  Move – can walk, climb, and fly  Control – through perception (Sense), processing, and action (Manipulate) 6

IoT and Robotics cross enablement Combining robotics with an Internet connection adds an  enormous source of information for robots to determine a best course of action Enable robots to communicate and share data among  themselves Remote task delegation to robots  If IoT is extended ears, nose and eyes, the IoT-enabled Robots will be extended brain, legs and arms 7

Application Scenarios: Collaborative Robots in Warehousing and Manufacturing e.g.,  Packaging and Quality inspection Robots for in-door Logistics e.g., in hospitals,  manufacturing,warehousing Autonomous mobile robots: e.g., Google’s self -driving cars,  Logistics robots Cloud Medical Robots e.g., assistive robots for patients  Minning and Agriculture e.g., drones for farms, drilling robots etc  8

Value Proposition • Increase delivery efficiency • Reducing operating costs • Collect and track Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) • Real time tracking (equipment, goods, assets, etc.) • Shift IT costs to a service based model • Provide 24h delivery services • Improve supply chain security

Objectives Develop an autonomous logistic delivery solution for packages and goods between two hospital buildings using a mobile industrial robot Requirements Start Destination • Warehouse 5th Floor Hospital Completely autonomous delivery Building Building • Real time data logging and visualization via online service Challenges • Automatic route definition • Automatic door opening • Automatic lift calling, boarding, and exiting • Obstacles avoidance • Dynamic environment

System Architecture WiFi - 4G Hotspot MIR Robot Gateway Azure Storage Account Control Power BI Center running an Azure client Bluetooth Relays module Elevator Email notification Dashboard Automatic Doors

Mobile Industrial Robot MiR100 MiR100 drives and independently in environments with people and obstacles using its (2) laser scanners, (1) 3D camera , and Multiple Maps Files System Specs Electro-Mechanical Specs • • Running ROS - Robotic Operating Loading area 600 x 800 mm • System Loading capacity up to 100 Kg. • • Embedded WiFi router Towing capacity up to 300 Kg • • Local Web Server Operating time of 12-15 hours • • Bluetooth Smart enabled Changing time 4-6 hours • • Serial Interface and REST API available Maximum speed of 5,4 km/hour

Bluetooth Relay Box Bluetooth Smart Module 1. Schindler Elevator Relay switches connected in parallel to: • Elevator calling button • Go to xthh floor button 2. Automatic Door Relay switch connected in parallel to: • Door open/close switch Mission configuration Mission Actions Move to door1 System Specs open door Exit warehouse pass the door • close door 4 programmable output relays compute path to elevator 3 • 1 analog/digital input Go to Elev3 move to elevator3 front • Proprietary BLE Service/Profile move to elevator3 front • 10+ meters range call elevator • Go to xth floor and Debugging via serial interface enter elevator destination go to 5th floor call • Configuration via MIR Web interface switch map go to delivery point

Data Collection and Processing Control Center Azure Storage Account Azure client • Visual Studio C# Application Library: Windows • Azure Table Storage Power BI Azure Storage Store structured data in • Collect data from • o Import data from the cloud based Azure the cloud robot via available Table Storage Rest API o Shape and model data in Power BI Desktop Create tables and o Present dashboard /reports with • insert entities into visualizations of KPIs, positions, etc. Azure Table Storage Email notification

Demonstration – March 30th Altran Norway successfully demonstrated the POC for the Vestre Viken management board and Norwegian Healthcare officers

Next Steps: Define next steps VestreViken POC 2 workshop Hospitals Extensive POC 2 (4 robots, more floors) deployment POC workshop (scheduled April 11th) POC

Future applications-innovation to be delivered Self ordering cabinets in wards and warehouse • Cognitive layer for ordering of supplies • Integrating with 3 rd party logistics vendors • Asset tracking and localisation • Theft protection • Smart operating rooms • 18
