mediPOD
The mediPOD is a self-sustaining capsular environment designed to augment conventional health care. As the risk of pandemics rise throughout increasingly dense urban centres, the single most effective way of containing these outbreaks is to limit the exposure of infected patients. The mediPOD is the extension of this idea as it is able to diagnose and immediately quarantine patients throughout the urban fabric. The mediPOD is the decentralization of hospital infrastructureand is able to act as a discrete mobile patient room. It is capable of responding to a wide range of scenarios from the very small, by acting as an expansion, diagnostic or isolation unit to any conventional hospital, to the very large scale by creating a widely dispersed health care networkable to respond to epidemics and natural disasters. The mediPOD is able to generate its own power through its solar skin, storing the energy in short term batteries or converting it to hydrogen for long term storage. When not occupied, the mediPOD acts as a constant generator of hydrogen which can be supplied to other mediPODs or existing infrastructures. The mediPOD is also capable of black water recycling - turning waste water back into potable water while additionally capturing fresh water from the external humid atmosphere. These systems minimize the exposure of the disease to the external world by keeping the processes on-board. The mediPOD has the ability to conduct ‘tele-consults’ or ‘tele-examinations’ through the use of high-speed wirelesscommunications, allowing the patient to always be in contact with a health care professional, regardless of geographic location. Additionally the employment of a VirtuSphere, allows patients to physically engage an emergent virtual network allowing for a mental and physical freedom thatgoes beyond the confines of the mediPOD.
