 by relieving healthcare staff of non -clinical, time -intensivetasks, allowing them to focus on direct patient care. The deployment of AGVs in healthcare environments addresses operational gaps caused by workforce shortages, enhancing productivity and service delivery across healthcare facilities. Enhanced safety and infection control through contactless AGV operations in healthcare: The COVID -19pandemic has underscored the importance of contactless operations in healthcare facilities, driving demand for AGVs to ensure the safe and efficient delivery of essential materials without direct human contact, thereby reducing disease transmission risks. As healthcare providers prioritize hygiene and safety, demand for AGVs is anticipated to continue increasing. AGVs contribute to improved safety and infection control by minimizing human involvement in medical material transport, which reduces cross -contaminationand infection spread — particularly critical in post -COVID -19hospital environments. Additionally, AGVs help healthcare facilities prevent material handling errors and mitigate safety risks, including potential equipment -personnelcollisions. By automating manual transport tasks, AGVs also reduce workplace injuries, supporting a safer environment for healthcare personnel. Automation of routine tasks and technological advancements in healthcare logistics: Healthcare logistics robots are increasingly automating essential tasks — such as the transport of laundry, food, medications, supplies, lab samples, and medical waste — enhancing operational efficiency. Technological advancements in AGVs are continuously improving their functionality. Enhanced with laser scanners, ultrasonic sensors, advanced navigation, and AI, modern AGVs can map complex hospital routes, dynamically avoid obstacles, and adapt to environmental changes in real -time. AI -poweredAGVs further optimize workflow by analyzing material transport patterns and optimizing routes. Integration with systems like OTSAW’s TCMS2 (TransCar Management System 2) provides autonomous control over inventory scheduling, vehicle routing, timing, and speed. This integration not only improves efficiency but enables real -timedata analysis, inventory tracking, and supply chain streamlining. The synergy between AGVs and TCMS2 strengthens accountability and transparency in material transport, delivering timely and accurate supply movement, and improving reliability across hospital logistics. Opportunities Presented by New and Upgraded Hospitals: According to Construction Dive, there are eight major hospital projects in the U.S., each exceeding $1 billion. Many of these projects were initiated before the pandemic to address healthcare capacity needs. Notably, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia plans to invest $3.4 billion, including a 22 -storyinpatient tower with 300 beds, scheduled to open in 2027. The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center is set to
