SINGAPORE – More than 200 locally made UV disinfecting mobile robots will be rolled out in shopping malls and the healthcare and transport sectors by the end of the year to help fight against Covid-19.
These autonomous UV mobile robots, known as Sunburst UV Bots, are made by local robotics technology firm PBA Group and are built with a lamp module emitting powerful ultraviolet-C (UV-C) light.
The robots will first be deployed in Northpoint City in May and eventually, in all 14 malls owned by Frasers Property, PBA Group and Frasers said in a joint statement on Thursday (April 23).
Frasers will be the first mall operator to utilise the robots in their malls.
The UV-C rays emitted by the lamp module help decontaminate the environment by tearing apart strands of virus DNA. The robots move around autonomously and are guided by light detection and ranging sensors.
