Design and Implementation of Surface Disinfection Robot Using UVC Light and Liquid Sanitizer

New general health problems jeopardize the globe with the growth and breakout of the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCov) or the significant severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2). The only way to reduce the spread of the virus is to maintain social distance and follow the rules set by our respective governments. However, manual disinfection is time-consuming, challenging, and poses safety dangers. Using robots for disinfection consequently becomes an appealing option. Furthermore, the robot can sanitize a location incredibly fast without exposing ourselves. So, in this research, we constructed a sanitization robot that would eliminate the coronavirus in the hospital and apartment building or elsewhere. In this study, we have developed an Arduino-based wireless robot where UVC Light and Liquid Sanitizer are utilized for eradicating the coronavirus. A servo motor, gear motors, wheels, and L298 motor driver module are employed for distinct purposes of the robot. Moreover, two mobile phones are used as IP Cameras for monitoring the robot. Thus, our robot can be employed for the sanitization procedure so that physical appearance will not be necessary.
