SUZANA Carvalho, a resident of the Portuguese capital Lisbon, stood before a robot resembling a sleek vending machine.
About five minutes later, she smiled as she held a steaming cup of herbal drink tailored to support her health after undergoing a brief scan and answering a series of questions from the device. “It’s incredible,” Carvalho said.
“I’ve always been curious about traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), but I didn’t expect it to be so advanced.” The demonstration took place on Friday at Instituto Universitario Egas Moniz in Lisbon, where medical professionals from China and Portugal, along with faculty members and students, gathered to witness the robot’s campus debut.
The robot was jointly developed by Macau University of Science and Technology and the Guangdong Provincial Laboratory of Traditional Chinese Medicine in southern China, aiming to modernize and enhance the accessibility of traditional Chinese medicine.
