Foxconn Taps NVIDIA to Accelerate Physical and Digital Robotics for Global Healthcare Industry

NVIDIA, Sunday, May 18th, 2025

The world's largest electronics manufacturer is building smart hospital solutions using NVIDIA technologies from the data center to the edge.

The global healthcare system is expected to face a shortage of 4.5 million nurses by 2030 - and one of the main causes is high burnout. Manufacturing giant Foxconn is helping ease the burden with NVIDIA-accelerated solutions like Nurabot, a collaborative nursing robot that offloads time-consuming, fatiguing tasks such as transporting medication and samples across the hospital.

Nurabot is just one of Foxconn's smart hospital applications developed using NVIDIA technologies and deployed by Taiwan's leading medical centers. Its other tools include AI models to support patient health monitoring and digital twins of hospital facilities to help management teams with design and planning.
