The robots will be deployed at critical locations within the hospitals that need enhanced surveillance or restricted access.- ST/ANN

SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): As you walk through the doors of Ng Teng Fong General Hospital next month, robots may scan your SafeEntry check-in and record your temperature.
