Humanoid robot manufacturer Ubtech has announced the market availability of its new autonomous UV-C disinfection robotics solution at CES 2022 in Las Vegas.
According to Ubtech, Adibot-A combines proven UV-C disinfecting technology, with sophisticated robotics hardware and AI software to provide an effective and affordable solution for creating clean and safe spaces.
The launch of an autonomous disinfection robot follows the introduction of a stationary version in 2021. Adibot-A can be programmed and mapped with Ubtech’s proprietary U-SLAM software to independently navigate one or multiple floor plans to disinfect against harmful pathogens, bacteria and viruses, including Covid-19.
The software utilises AI algorithms to also generate optimal disinfection paths and navigate obstacles from the first disinfection session, creating automatic autonomous routes with key disinfection points.
Adibot-A provides 360-degree radiant light coverage, UV-C disinfection, and intelligent safety features, including the use of AI enabled risk mitigation cameras, two lidar systems, multiple PIR sensors and sensor enabled safety signage.
“The unprecedented success we’ve experienced with our Adibot systems over the last year shows the need for innovative and affordable solutions to protect against harmful viruses,” said John Rhee, SVP and general manager of Ubtech, North America.
“In 2022 and beyond, Ubtech looks forward to building on this success and expanding our solutions for schools, businesses and our overwrought healthcare system.”
Ubtech’s disinfection systems are currently deployed in over 500 buildings, such as in school districts, office parks, and convention centres across the US. Ubtech added its foundations in robotics and AI make it possible to offer this safe and effective solution at an affordable price for organisations that didn’t previously have access to hospital-grade disinfection.
