HW Telecare is a telepresence robotic application for elder care, based on a social telepresence robot Pepper. The React-based application have been developed and deployed using the RetraDev framework, allowing caregivers to remotely connect to the elderlies. The proposed telecare robotic application was tailored to assist the caregivers to checkup on their patients and conduct remote consultation sessions using Pepper as the telepresence robot.
The application was designed as a part of my Masters dissertation (see here).
