desinfecting robots

Southgate Community School District is using a robot to ensure that its Fordline Elementary School campus is disinfected. It’s the first school in Michigan to utilize Xenex Disinfection Services’ germ-zapping technologies to destroy germs throughout the building.

Events DC, a convention and sports authority for the District of Columbia, announced it has deployed an ADIBOT disinfecting robot at Walter E. Washington Convention Center to create safe meeting spaces and protect guests and staff from harmful pathogens, including COVID-19.

Blue Ocean Robotics, the manufacturer of the autonomous disinfecting robot UVD Robots equipped with UV-C light, has been selected by Gallup McKinley County Schools (GMCS) in New Mexico to supply 37 UVD Robots to the districts’ schools to help fight the Coronavirus and other infectious diseases.

 UVD Robots has received the prestigious Emerging Technology Award from the American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME) in the field of robotics. While traditionally the award honors ascending technologies that are poised to transform their fields and the innovators behind them, according to ASME, the 2020 awards recognize innovations that are not only changing industries but also supporting society during COVID-19. Winners were celebrated in an ASME video announcement.
