In the modern world the use of information and communication technologies, computer networks and systems based on such technologies are the determinants of efficiency and operating performance in healthcare. This paper deals with the concepts of electronic and mobile health and opportunities of their implementation in the healthcare systems. This paper will analyze the factors that influence the acceptance of mobile healthcare services among employees in health institutions. The main goal of this paper was to analyze the possibilities of using mobile healthcare services in health institutions, as well as to analyze the predictors for successful implementation of mobile health services. The research results indicate a high level of knowledge regarding the usefulness and availability of services among healthcare workers in health institutions, which is the prerequisite for a successful implementation of mobile health in the healthcare system.

It becomes increasingly essential to have unmanned robots and drones that can replace manned apparatus as to make works more efficient and safer when patrolling hazardous areas. This study introduces an enhanced display based on augmented-reality technology with markers. The display system is being developed for tele-operated robots to carry out missions inside buildings. The camera view from the camera mounted on robots is augmented by three-dimensional CAD data of buildings. This feature allows the operator to figure out paths that cameras cannot see, to compare them with CAD data, and to recognize unexpected obstacles and broken structure. The effectiveness of the developed display system was tested with a tele-operated RC car using three displays (AR video, camera video, and 2D map) in corridor type structure.
