KUALA LUMPUR: Blue Ocean Robotics has been recognised as one of the top 50 most influential robotics companies in the world (RBR50) for its UVD Robots in Robotics Business Review.
According to a statement, the recognition was earned for work with UVD Robot, the health benefits of its technology and the continued growing demand for disinfecting capabilities.
UVD Robots combines deep microbiological know-how, autonomous robot technology and ultraviolet light to create the world’s best UV-C based disinfection solution, proven to eliminate pathogens within 10 to 15 minutes in a room.
“We expect that the Danish RBR50 company will, in the future, help both hospitals and other localities prevent infections as well.”
Founded via a collaboration with Odense University Hospital, Blue Ocean Robotics created UVD Robots as a subsidiary in 2014 to solve the problem of Hospital Acquired Infections. One in 15 people get infected in hospitals.
The robots have been rolled out to over 60 countries.
