Ubitus and MacKay Memorial Hospital Unveil AI-Powered Medical Robots at NVIDIA GTC Taiwan 2025

Revolutionizing Healthcare: Ubitus and MacKay Memorial Hospital Present AI Robot Collaboration at GTC Taiwan TAIPEI, Taiwan--(Business Wire)--At NVIDIA GTC Taiwan 2025, Ubitus, a global leader in cloud streaming and AI solutions, announced a groundbreaking collaboration with MacKay Memorial Hospital. Together, they are presenting "AI-Enabled Healthcare: Multi-Modal Robot Collaboration Inspired by MacKay’s Case Study," which showcases how NVIDIA’s advanced technologies, such as NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, NVIDIA Omniverse, NVIDIA Isaac GR00T, NVIDIA ACE, and NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, are transforming healthcare through automation, improved patient care, and heightened efficiency. Three Intelligent Robots Redefining Healthcare Operations Ubitus and MacKay Memorial Hospital have jointly developed three AI-driven medical robots, each tailored for specific medical applications: AMR Robot: This robot, equipped with a virtual assistant, offers patient navigation, interactive companionship, and registration assistance, creating a smoother and more personalized patient journey. Humanoid Robot: Powered by NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N1, the humanoid robot excels in advanced dual-arm manipulation, facilitating autonomous specimen transport and material handling in unmanned areas, thus improving logistics efficiency. Quadruped Robot: Built on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin and integrating NVIDIA Isaac GR00T ReMemBr and NVIDIA Isaac GR00T X-mobility technologies, this robot is designed to navigate high-risk, hard-to-reach areas. It performs environmental monitoring tasks, including gas detection, thermal sensing, and water leakage detection, and transmits real-time data to minimize healthcare risks. Natural, Multilingual Interactions All three robots utilize NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs and the Llama 4 large language model, along with NVIDIA Riva, to facilitate natural, multilingual interactions. The virtual assistant leverages NVIDIA ACE digital human technologies to enhance patient engagement with customizable avatars, providing emotional support, health education, and companionship, thereby creating a more empathetic care environment. Virtual-Physical Integration Accelerates Deployment The project leveraged NVIDIA Omniverse and NVIDIA Isaac Sim to simulate hospital environments, enabling virtual testing, collaboration, and task training before real-world deployment. This approach significantly reduced pre-deployment risks and costs while shortening deployment timelines and optimizing operational workflows. "We are proud to partner with MacKay Memorial Hospital in pioneering multi-modal medical robot collaboration using NVIDIA’s comprehensive healthcare AI technologies," said Wesley Kuo, CEO of Ubitus. "This collaboration marks a significant step forward in making MacKay the first smart hospital in Taiwan to adopt NVIDIA B200, demonstrating the tangible benefits of AI in healthcare and reinforcing our commitment to driving innovation.” Enhancing Healthcare Across Multiple Settings Ubitus aims to expand its collaboration with MacKay Memorial Hospital and NVIDIA to introduce AI and multi-modal robotics into emergency, inpatient, rehabilitation, and long-term care settings. The goal is to develop flexible, scalable smart healthcare solutions that seamlessly integrate AI into clinical workflows, thereby enhancing care quality and efficiency. President of MacKay Memorial Hospital expressed enthusiasm about the partnership: "We are thrilled to work with Ubitus and incorporate AI and robotics into our operations. This initiative not only elevates patient service quality but also optimizes internal workflows and safety management." Positive Feedback from Hospital Staff The hospital staff has reported significant improvements with the AI-powered robots. These robots have effectively reduced the workload, enhanced clinical efficiency, and improved safety inspections, making daily operations more streamlined and effective.
