Karnataka Government recently announced the launch of AI-driven movable hospital to treat COVID-19 patients. It has been done in an effort to contain the spread of the virus in the state.

Called the Vevra Pods, these are movable capsules that are infused with artificial intelligence to prevent the spread of contagious diseases such as COVID-19, flu, TB and more. Dr Sudhakar K, the education minister tweeted that AI has the potential to transform healthcare and urged tech startups to focus on low-cost solutions.

It has been developed by Bengaluru-based design-and-build firm Vevra in association with Portugal-based healthcare IoT InnoWave Group. With an accommodation capacity of up to nine beds, it will have an antechamber airlock room to provide a safe area for healthcare professionals.
