“…As interns, they need to examine patients more than 10 times per day. Then, an online survey was conducted with 42 general people (66.7% male, 33.3% female) between the ages of 18 and 30 [8]. Miro 1 , an online collaborative board, has been employed to help the main researcher gather information and avoid misinterpretation.…”

Thailand, as well as many other countries worldwide, is facing a shortage of medical staff. We propose a solution to improve medical services in rural areas: a robot teleoperation system that allow patients to consult with doctors from public hospitals, and for doctors to examine and make decisions about their required care. To develop such a system, we are following a user-centred design (UCD) process. Two research questions have been addressed: how should an effective robot teleoperation system be designed to support medical diagnosis and patient communication? And does the use of a social robot improve the social interaction and examination quality in a remote consultation? This paper discusses the overall UCD process, starting from requirement analysis with Thai end-users (finished), system design and development on Pepper robot (in-progress), and user-centred evaluation (future plan).

“…Lastly, all data were sorted and summarized into main themes, and interpreted using a framework analysis [9], a systematic and flexible way to analyze qualitative data. Detailed results are presented in [8] which discussed how the collected requirements can be transferred into technical specifications of the system.…”
