Autonomous, AI-Powered Robot Navigates Directly to Patients' Bedsides - No Staff Escort Required
LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESS Newswire / March 10, 2026 / VSee (NASDAQ:VSEE), the leader in telehealth platform innovation, today announced the launch of the VSee AI Robot at HIMSS 2026 - the world's first fully autonomous telehealth AI robot purpose-built for hospital and health system deployment. The VSee AI Robot enables remote clinicians to navigate directly to a patient's bedside without requiring onsite staff assistance, delivering true virtual rounding, rapid telestroke response, and specialist coverage across emergency departments and ICUs at scale.
The launch marks a pivotal inflection point in care delivery: For the first time, a single autonomous robot can replace or augment multiple manual workflows simultaneously - from remote physician rounding to medication and supplies delivery - while integrating seamlessly into existing clinical AI ecosystems through VSee's proprietary AI Workflow Engine.
"We built the VSee AI Robot to solve the hardest problem in healthcare staffing: doing more with less, without sacrificing the human connection at the bedside," said Dr. Milton Chen, CEO of VSee. "This isn't a cart with a screen. This is an autonomous clinical teammate that multiplies what every provider on your team can do."
Autonomous Navigation Meets Clinical-Grade Intelligence
Unlike traditional telepresence carts that require staff to physically escort or reposition them, the VSee AI Robot uses advanced LiDAR navigation to independently travel hospital corridors, enter patient rooms, and position itself at the bedside - day or night, with 30X optical and infrared night vision. Its surgical-grade display delivers high-definition virtual encounters while programmable drawers enable secure medication and supply delivery on the same autonomous pass.
Key clinical capabilities include:
Remote physician rounding & specialist consults - multisite coverage across ED, ICU, and med-surg
Telestroke & rapid response - autonomous dispatch to bedside within minutes
Patient check-in & triage - reducing front-line staff burden at intake
Medication & supply delivery - programmable, secure, auditable
Secure patient identification - HIPAA-compliant, role-based access
Powered by the VSee AI Workflow Engine: Designed for 100+ Clinical AI Capabilities, Zero IT Rebuild
The VSee AI Robot is powered by the VSee AI Workflow Engine, a no-code/low-code AI activation layer that enables hospitals to deploy and govern a library of clinical AI modules - from AI Copilot-assisted scheduling and coding to Early Warning vitals deterioration alerts and Stroke CT Hemorrhage notifications - without rebuilding existing IT infrastructure or enduring 12-month integration cycles.
The platform's modular Building Blocks architecture means health systems can configure and scale in days, not months - with VSee guaranteeing common customizations in as little as 1 day to 1 month.
Proven at scale, VSee's telehealth platform already powers over 1.5 million video encounters per month, and a capacity of 1,800+ appointments per day, and helped clients like LA County Department of Mental Health onboard 800+ providers in under 7 days.
Immediate Financial & Operational ROI
The VSee AI Robot is designed to deliver measurable ROI from day one:
Optimize staff utilization - autonomous navigation eliminates the need for escort staff on virtual rounds
Reduce staffing costs - one robot enables remote specialists to cover multiple facilities simultaneously
Increase revenue - expand specialist service lines (telestroke, tele-ICU) without adding headcount
See It Live at HIMSS 2026
The VSee AI Robot will be on live demonstration at HIMSS 2026 in Las Vegas. Attendees can experience autonomous bedside navigation, live virtual rounding workflows, and the VSee AI Workflow Engine dashboard in person at two locations on the show floor:
