Overview

Unicorn is a cutting-edge disinfection robot designed for rapid and safe UVC disinfection, offering agility in deployment for effective virus fighting. Equipped with a 360-degree camera, Unicorn ensures that no one is present in the room before initiating disinfection. Its central UV lamps deliver a fast and effective germicidal dose of continuous UVC waves. The robot features transformable side panels that expand to enhance UV coverage, especially for ceilings. With a remote-controlled all-terrain vehicle, Unicorn can navigate any surface, including upslope areas, making it ideal for disinfecting patient rooms, intensive care units, operating rooms, emergency rooms, and other hospital facilities.
