Abstract

The use of Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) to disinfect environments gained prominence during the current pandemic of COVID-19, as a method to reduce the contamination. Given the risks that the technique can bring to human health and other living beings, autonomous robots become useful for the application of UVGI. This document presents a study of the technical feasibility of using some platforms as a processing and control unit for low-cost autonomous disinfectant robots. For this, each platform is subjected to the UVGI irradiance calculation, a task that requires a high processing capacity. The results show that all tested platforms meet the processing capacity criteria, being eligible to compose a low-cost disinfectant robot.
