Hospital isolation rooms expose healthcare workers to infection risks during routine tasks like IV bag replacement and material delivery. This paper presents a teleoperated TIAGo robot system controlled via Bluetooth joystick through a modular ROS 2 architecture including five specialized Python nodes to manage robot subsystems. Two Gazebo simulation scenarios validate the approach: IV replacement and meal delivery in modeled hospital rooms, demonstrating feasibility for reducing exposure.

Abstract

Hospital isolation rooms expose healthcare workers to infection risks during routine tasks like IV bag replacement and material delivery. This paper presents a teleoperated TIAGo robot system controlled via Bluetooth joystick through a modular ROS 2 architecture including five specialized Python nodes to manage robot subsystems. Two Gazebo simulation scenarios validate the approach: IV replacement and meal delivery in modeled hospital rooms, demonstrating feasibility for reducing exposure.
