The Rabbit Hole
The robots and AI technologies advancing South African health care

South African researchers and surgeons are using artificial intelligence and robotics to enhance healthcare in the country, BBC News reports.

The improvements include a video-call robot that patients can use to speak to their families without needing to be present in the room and an app — currently in development — that can detect tuberculosis by listening to people cough.
 
Nice. Very nice. I especially like the part about the DaVinci robot.
What I don’t get though is the video call robot- how is its function different from a regular cellphone video call?

The difference: No agitation or swearing due to jitter or buffering during video calls in South Africa.
