Abstract. Demands for securing on site medical first aid equipment for medics and fast supply of required medical response and acquisition of medical patients’ history are growing. Domestic robots developed to support human beings by performing daily tasks such as cleaning, cooking, and the like can also be employed to help in emergencies by finding, analyzing, and assisting persons in need of first aid. This paper presents the construction and programming of a robot employed to help in first aid services such as checking the patient’s blood pressure, temperature, the sugar level in the blood, and ECG recording. It can also print reports and/or sends emails to specialized physicians. Moreover, the presented approach can be adapted for use in other robots and contexts leading to autonomous robotic first aid.
