Ultraviolet (UV) sterilization technology is used to aid in reduction of microorganisms that may remain on the surfaces after a standard cleaning to the minimum number. Our research team developed a UV robot or UV bot for sterilization in an operating or a patient room. Our UV bot has three 19.3-watt of UV lamps mounted on top of the UV bot platform covering 180° direction. Our UV bot employed an embedded system based on a Arduino UNO to aid in navigation to avoid obstacles. In addition, we tested the effectiveness of eliminating Staphylococcus Aurous bacteria sample plates located 5 cm away from our UV bot to be within 8 seconds after UV light exposure.
