Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), it has threatened the whole world. This is highly infectious disease which spreads very fast in the community. Recent literature showed that SARS-CoV-2 can remain suspended in the air as well as on surfaces for days. There are currently numerous solutions to fight against this disease. Ultraviolet (UV) sterilization technology is used to aid in the reduction of microorganism like SARS-CoV-2 that may remain on the surfaces after a standard cleaning. It is mainly used for domestic, hospitals and industrial purpose. In this work, E- Yantra Fire Bird V and UVC (254nm) light is used for floor disinfection. This robot uses AVR ATmega2560 microcontroller. It employs an embedded system based on Arduino UNO for connectivity to Bluetooth applications and it controls operation of UV light. It avoids obstacles while cleaning.
