With the deadly virus Ebola ravaging through Africa, and even prompting a scare in Dallas, a company in Texas has developed new type of disinfection bot.
Named “Little Moe”, this machine uses bright bursts of UV-C light to quickly disinfect a room. According to the company, the robot’s light bulb, which contains Xenon, can kill up to 99.9% of dangerous viruses and bacteria; in less than 5 minutes. It achieves this by splitting open bacterial cell walls to kill dangerous pathogens commonly found in hospitals.
The robot can completely disinfect a room in 5 minutes, and destroy Ebola on any surface in 2 minutes. This robot is advantageous because the UV light eliminates the need for dangerous chemicals.
