AGH UST signed an agreement on cooperation with Infofinder

The continuous development of technology makes it possible to support the work performed by humans or even replace them in tedious and toilsome tasks. The cooperation implies joint research and the search for innovative solutions and digital techniques related to the development of wheeled vehicle autonomy.

The implementation of the so-called cobots (collaborative + robot) to the common public space is a huge challenge that requires wide-reaching research in the fields of digital communication and security systems.

Autonomous robots roaming the same hospital corridors as medical staff and visitors are a vision that is about to become reality. Furthermore, the use of such technologies to handle hospital logistics systems allows medical personnel to focus on treating patients and attending to their needs.

The agreement was signed by the AGH UST Vice-Rector for Cooperation, Professor Rafał Wiśniowski, and the President of Infofinder Management Board, Mariusz Kleszczewski. The coordinators are:

• At the AGH UST: Assoc. Professor Jarosław Konieczny, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics,
• At Infofinder: Czesław Wandzel.

The Infofinder company designs, manufactures, and distributes an innovative IT system dedicated to the management of process security related to pharmacotherapy and logistics of medicines and medical materials in the broad sense. It is a workflow-type system that allows one to drastically reduce errors related to the identification, verification, and registration of medicines and medical materials. The system facilitates standardisation and optimisation of work for medical staff. Ultimately, the company’s software is integrated with logistics devices and autonomous warehouses into a comprehensive HLS system (Hospital Logistics System), intended for Polish and European hospitals.
