Okay......what next? Aethon Inc. building robotic nursing assistant - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Aethon Inc. said Wednesday it's working to build a robotic nursing assistant in partnership with RE2 Inc. Based in Robinson, Aethon developed the Tug robot to make deliveries in hospitals. The RNA, which uses Tug technology, will be designed to help caregivers lift patients from gurneys onto hospital beds, for example, and it will independently navigate through hospitals. RE2, Lawrenceville, obtained money for the project from the U.S. Army Medical Research & Material Command.
