Development of Text to Speech Technology for Medical Robot Interaction

Health sector is getting better and improving is one of the contributions that can help national development. This is supported by the number of hospitals that have developed and provide medical devices to detect disease. During the Covid-19 pandemic, this disease spread quickly through air and saliva, so social distancing was necessary. Thus, many medical devices, such as measuring body temperature in public places, use sensors that can measure within 5–10 centimeters. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a robot that can detect body temperature and PPG in real-time. The data obtained will be read by text to speech using the GTTS and python text to speech library then the robot will sound in Indonesian. The results obtained show that the data has been successfully read with percentage success rate is 100
^%
and data reading speed of 2–6 seconds until the robot speaks.
