Twenty questions.
Zero guesswork.

ROZOR Disinfection Robot is a purpose-built, AI-powered autonomous robot that brings fast, reliable UV-C disinfection to healthcare environments (and other high-risk settings). It's built on the ROZOR Autonomous Platform so the robot can navigate rooms safely, run validated disinfection cycles, and report outcome and compliance data to your cloud dashboard. The hardware includes a vertical UV-C column (six UV-C lamps) and a medical-grade, human-centric design, engineered to disinfect both air and non-porous surfaces quickly while integrating with existing workflows.

ROZOR's disinfection method does not rely on chemical sprays or single-use disinfectant consumables. The disinfection work is done by germicidal UV-C light. The only periodic items are the UV-C lamps themselves: ROZOR's vertical tower uses six industry-grade germicidal lamps, and industry-standard UV-C lamps are typically rated in the order of thousands of operating hours (Germicidal lamps are rated ~9,000 hours). Actual replacement intervals depend on how often the robot runs, but the fleet system tracks lamp hours and notifies you when replacement is due, keeping operating costs predictable and low. ROZOR is sold and supported with a subscription/RaaS model that bundles hardware, cloud intelligence and maintenance so customers see clear operational savings (the platform is designed to materially reduce operating cost).

No, ROZOR's UV-C disinfection is designed to complement, not replace, traditional cleaning. Manual cleaning removes dirt, organic matter and debris (which can shield microbes), while UV-C inactivates microorganisms that remain on exposed surfaces and in the air. Used together, manual cleaning + ROZOR's automated UV-C cycles give a more complete, evidence-tracked hygiene solution. ROZOR's Fleet OS also provides automatic compliance logs and coverage reports so teams can prove and improve outcomes.

To get consistent UVC disinfection you need to control four things:

1. Distance from the lamp to the target,
2. Exposure time,
3. Dose / intensity delivered to each surface, and
4. Safety so no people are exposed to UVC.

Ceiling-mounted UVC fixtures are fixed in place, so they struggle with all four: they can leave shadowed or under-lit surfaces, they can't change distance or intensity for different surfaces, and they can't tailor exposure times room-by-room. In short, a fixed lamp can create blind spots and inconsistent dosing.

The ROZOR Disinfection Robot is designed to solve those limitations:

• Active positioning to control distance and shadows. ROZOR is a mobile, self-navigating platform with an upright UV-C tower (six lamps). Because it moves, it can position the lamps closer to surfaces and visit multiple angles to eliminate shadowed areas that fixed ceiling lamps miss.
• Adaptive exposure and dosing. ROZOR's autonomy and on-board edge inference let it plan and execute cycles that set the right exposure time and lamp intensity for each location, so each surface receives the dose required to inactivate pathogens rather than a one-size-fits-all exposure. The robot's autonomy is part of ROZOR's platform design (edge inference + Fleet Intelligence).
• Smart sensing and room awareness. The platform uses lidar, cameras and other sensors (SLAM/vision and local inference) to map rooms, detect occlusions, and generate coverage plans so disinfection is consistent and measurable. This sensor suite is the backbone of ROZOR's safe, repeatable cycles.
• Safety engineered for people. ROZOR includes an integrated safety stack (detection cameras, emergency stop, and edge safety logic) that prevents human exposure by detecting presence and immediately disabling UVC when required. That combination of human-aware sensing and hardware safety controls makes it safe to use in clinical environments where people are nearby.
• Measured outcomes and compliance. Because ROZOR is part of a Fleet OS, every cycle is logged, coverage maps and dose reports are produced, and teams can prove disinfection coverage and compliance, something fixed fixtures don't provide. This data helps facilities optimize schedules and demonstrate clinical outcomes.

Bottom line: ceiling fixtures are passive and limited by placement; ROZOR is an active, intelligent platform that controls distance, exposure, dose and safety in a repeatable, measurable way. That combination delivers more consistent and reliable UVC disinfection across real rooms and surfaces while keeping people safe.

Both UVC and HPV are proven disinfection technologies, and each has practical strengths depending on the use case:

• UVC (as used by ROZOR) is fast and well suited for routine, high-turnover areas where rooms must be turned around quickly. ROZOR's AI-driven platform and vertical UV-C tower allow it to disinfect a standard patient room in roughly seven minutes, helping facilities reduce downtime and operational cost.
• HPV is commonly selected for terminal or deep decontamination scenarios where longer contact times, gaseous penetration, or treatment of complex equipment/porous surfaces is required. Because HPV typically needs longer treatment and room sealing, it is less practical for frequent, same-day room turnover. (Different clinical policies and risk assessments determine which method is best for a given scenario.)

Practical takeaway: For routine, frequent disinfection where speed, low downtime and predictable operating costs matter, a mobile UVC solution like ROZOR is often the more practical choice. For specialized terminal decontamination of complex environments, HPV remains an important option. ROZOR is designed to deliver rapid, repeatable UVC cycles and measurable operational savings while integrating into broader infection-control programs.

For a standard hospital patient room, ROZOR typically completes a full UV-C disinfection cycle in the order of ~7 minutes. That figure reflects an optimized clinical cycle for a typical room size and layout, and is deliberately short so facilities can maintain fast turnover. Actual cycle time will vary with room geometry, furniture and occlusions: ROZOR's autonomy and mapping adapt the cycle to the room so the robot delivers the required dose where it's needed.

There isn't a single answer, frequency depends on clinical protocols, room classification and risk level: high-risk areas or rooms after aerosol-generating procedures typically need more frequent cycles than low-risk administrative spaces. ROZOR is designed to support protocol-based scheduling: the Fleet OS lets teams schedule runs, track coverage and review logs so frequency can be set and audited according to your infection-control policy. For best results, align ROZOR use with your hospital's operational guidelines (the manufacturer and infection-control leadership should define frequency by room type and intended risk reduction).

ROZOR supports two complementary verification approaches:

1. During the cycle, UV-sensitive indicators: Place UV-dose strips or indicators in target locations to confirm that the delivered UV-C dose met the planned threshold. These quick visual checks are useful for routine operational validation.
2. After the cycle, microbiological sampling: For formal verification and compliance, facilities can perform microbial swabs and testing according to accepted standards (for example, BSI 8628:2022 is a recognized standard for evaluating UV disinfection performance). These post-disinfection assays provide objective evidence of microbial reduction.

In addition, ROZOR's Fleet OS produces coverage maps, delivered-dose estimates and automatic cycle logs so teams can track performance over time and tie disinfection activity to outcomes. Those system reports make it easier to audit cycles and optimize protocols.

ROZOR is intended for high-priority clinical and support areas where reliable, repeatable disinfection and fast turnover are important. Typical use cases include:

• Operating rooms, support surface and air hygiene to help reduce surgical site infection risk.
• Intensive care units (ICUs), protect vulnerable patients.
• Isolation rooms, safe, evidence-tracked cleaning after occupancy.
• Emergency departments, frequent turnovers and high patient throughput.
• Patient rooms, routine post-discharge cycles for rapid turnover.
• Procedure rooms and outpatient treatment rooms, fast cleaning between cases.
• Neonatal units and delivery rooms, environments with very low tolerance for contamination.
• Laboratories, equipment storage and sterile supply areas, maintain clean environments for sensitive work or instruments.
• Restrooms and other high-traffic support spaces, reduce cross-contamination risk.

These recommendations reflect typical clinical priorities; the robot's mapping, sensor suite and learning models let ROZOR adapt to each room and prioritize high-touch surfaces for reliable, repeatable results. For final deployment plans, infection-control teams should classify rooms and set schedules and acceptance criteria accordingly.

ROZOR uses an energy-dense LiFePO₄ modular battery designed for fast top-ups: ~80% in ~90 minutes and a full charge in about 120–150 minutes (model-dependent). A full charge supports hours of operation, allowing one robot to disinfect several hundred, up to ~600–700 m² per charge in typical deployments, depending on cycle settings, room layout and pauses for occupied areas.

At minimum you need a power outlet/charging dock and local wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth) for the tablet/app and updates; Wi-Fi is recommended for software/model updates and fleet coordination. For multi-robot sites, the ROZOR Fleet OS (cloud) is optional but strongly recommended for scheduling, telemetry and compliance reporting.

ROZOR requires low day-to-day maintenance: remote diagnostics and over-the-air updates handle most software work, while modular hardware and an authorized service network enable quick part swaps and repairs. The Fleet OS tracks lamp hours, battery health and component status to support planned, data-driven preventative maintenance.

Operators use a simple tablet/mobile app for local control, and ROZOR's Fleet Management platform provides cloud dashboards, coverage heatmaps, cycle logs and analytics for single units or fleets; open APIs support integrations with hospital systems.

No, ROZOR is built as an AI-first, autonomous platform so it does not require a dedicated specialist. Any trained staff member (cleaning staff or clinical staff) can start and monitor cycles from the tablet / mobile app or receive completion notifications. The system's autonomous control, simple UI and human-friendly design mean the robot works with minimal hands-on supervision.

ROZOR's standard operator training is compact and practical: about 4 hours of theory and 8 hours of hands-on practice, which covers safe operation, basic troubleshooting and day-to-day workflows. This curriculum is intended so routine staff become confident operators quickly.

ROZOR aligns with recognized international standards: examples referenced in our materials include BSI 8628:2022 (used for post-disinfection microbial assessment), CE safety compliance and quality management standards such as ISO 9001. These certifications and standards guide how we design, test and validate safety and performance.

ROZOR is shipped with a comprehensive manufacturer warranty that covers hardware and software maintenance during the warranty term (our product materials reference a two-year standard warranty for the disinfection product family). After the warranty expires, extended and paid maintenance plans are available through ROZOR's authorized service network and support channels. ROZOR also offers certified spare parts and an RMA/repair process via authorized service centers.

Safety is engineered at multiple levels: ROZOR combines a human-aware safety stack (360° detection cameras, lidar/vision and emergency-stop hardware) with autonomy logic that pauses or disables UV-C whenever human presence or motion is detected. These hardware and software safeguards, plus local interlocks and operator controls, ensure the robot never exposes people to UV-C during operation.

Yes, many healthcare providers and facilities use ROZOR in clinical and high-traffic environments. For deployment examples and a list of reference clients, see the ROZOR brochure and the Customers / Deployments pages in our resources (we also publish case studies and ROI results for selected site deployments).

That depends on your hospital's size, bed count, room types and desired turnaround frequency. A site assessment (room classification, daily turnover targets and cycle profiles) is the right first step, ROZOR's Deployment team can calculate coverage and propose a fleet plan tailored to your needs. This collaborative assessment gives the most accurate, cost-effective fleet recommendation.
