A Cost Effective UV Robot for Disinfecting Hospital and Factory Spaces for Covid-19 and Other Communicable Diseases

Abstract

This paper presents a cost effective UV robot for applications of disinfecting hospital and factory spaces from Covid-19 and other communicable diseases. This is based on a disinfection method using a remotely controlled Ultra-Violet (UV) disinfection robot. The robot is equipped with 3 UVC lamps in a 360 degree beam coverage setting, on a mobile base which is equipped with motors, controllers and sensors that allow the lamps to move around and disinfect surfaces with ease. The robot can automatically detect human and or other types of non-living presence over which machine learning models are built that allows for some degree of autonomous control. Its main control unit is operated via WiFi using the mobile as a transceiver device allowing for remote safe control of UVC lamp disinfection.

“…It is generally agreed that the event started in the Chinese city of Wuhan [4] 109 wide, causes infectious illness. Its name comes from the fact that it has the appearance of a crown due to the spike projection that was seen when it was magnified [5]. Analysis of suggestive and asymptomatic people revealed increased viral loads in the nose when removed from the throat with no improvement in viral load [6].…”
