Shining a Spotlight on HVAC Ultraviolet Technologies to Fight Disease Transmission
UVGI offers a range of potential disinfectant strategies for the built environment. In-room irradiation of unoccupied spaces by autonomous robots armed with an array of UV-C lights is being deployed in patient rooms and operating theaters in Europe, China and North America. Standing nearly 6 feet tall and equipped with lidar sensors, these robots follow a digital map, traveling to and from their charging stations (including up and down elevators) to disinfect rooms in about 15 minutes. For safety, they are programmed to stop immediately if they detect motion.
