Meet the DeKonBot: a mobile disinfection robot that can sanitize door handles, light switches and elevator buttons to help stop spread of the disease. It autonomously identifies surfaces to be cleaned thanks to a smart sensor and image processing.
The robot wipes potentially contaminated surfaces to kill existing germs. Unlike UV robot, the DeKonBot can be used safely around humans. This video from FraunhoferIPA shows this robot in action.
