Who is robot Grace?

In the modern world, against the background of the flourishing of scientific and technological progress, more and more industries appear in which traditional and specific work is no longer performed by people, but by robots. Automated mechanisms turned out to be able to replace the functions of loaders, vehicle drivers, and assemblers on the conveyor. For a long time medicine remained an exclusively "live" industry, in which the presence and participation of competent and highly qualified personnel was necessary. However, in the last century already, mankind had the opportunity to learn about the da Vinci robotic system, capable of performing the most complex and high-precision operations, and recently, specialists from Hong Kong have developed a robot nurse Grace, designed to perform the functions of paramedical personnel. The impetus for the creation of a robot nurse was the coronavirus pandemic, in which medical workers took the whole blow, and, unfortunately, proved to be very vulnerable to infection. Against the background of the colossal rate of infection of the medical staff, very often medical workers became victims of this dangerous disease; there was simply no one to look after the patients, and the remaining staff was unable to cope with the enormous workload. Therefore, Hong Kong scientists came up with the idea of giving a "medical orientation" to the previously developed humanoid robot Sophia, dressing it in a medical uniform and equipping it with the necessary skills.
