Problem
Hospital staff spend significant time manually retrieving, loading, and logging medical supplies and specimens, which diverts clinical personnel from patient care and creates inefficiencies in the supply chain.
Solution
RAY offers an end‑to‑end robotic platform that automates the entire medical supply workflow—from intake and verification to delivery and return routing. Mobile robots coordinate with locker stations via a dedicated app, allowing couriers to deposit items directly into secure lockers that the robot retrieves. The system scans and confirms contents at intake, then transports items to the point of care where nurses verify their identity to receive packages. Outbound specimens are automatically routed back to external couriers, completing a closed-loop process that eliminates manual handling and reduces handoff delays.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hospitals and large healthcare facilities that manage high volumes of medical supplies, specimens, and lab samples and seek to free clinical staff for direct patient care.
