The global disinfectant robot market is estimated to account for US$ 946.5 Mn in terms of value by the end of 2022. A Disinfectant Robot can disinfect an entire hospital room in about 20 minutes. It is controlled by a smartphone app, and autonomous software. It can disinfect a room or area up to 360 degrees and can detect obstacles as it moves. The system uses a powerful UV-C disinfectant to kill bacteria and viruses in the air. It also has several depth sensors to map the space it is cleaning.
The Disinfectant Robot utilizes several modules that are specifically designed to meet the challenges of different disinfection scenarios. These modules use machine vision algorithms to recognize targets and scenes in the environment. These algorithms allow the robot to choose the most effective disinfectant solution for each scenario. This allows the robot to avoid any obstacles that might hinder the robot's progress and maximize its disinfection efficiency.
