Power Supply Technologies for Collaborative Service Robots: Characteristics and Comparative Overview

Abstract

The article examines the power supply of a Service Collaborative Robot, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, intended for transporting seriously injured people and serving them in medical facilities. The qualities of this power supply are analyzed, highlighting its advantages in terms of environmental characteristics and its long "life" during the activities of serving patients in serious health conditions and transporting them to a hospital. Some main characteristics of this type of robot, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, are analyzed, compared with robots powered by other types of power supplies, and its advantages when working in a hospital are shown.
