This paper introduces the Corner Disinfection Robot as a ground-breaking response to the unique hygiene demands posed by the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the critical importance of robust hygiene measures, creating an urgent need for innovative solutions to address sanitation challenges. Traditional cleaning methods often fall short of effectively disinfecting hard-to-reach corners and confined spaces, exacerbating the risk of pathogen transmission.The need for comprehensive disinfection has become particularly pressing in environments like healthcare facilities, public transportation, and crowded public spaces. Existing methods, inadequate in reaching corners, necessitate a paradigm shift. The robot, equipped with ultraviolet light disinfection autonomously navigates and effectively disinfects challenging hard-to-reach areas.By mitigating the limitations of traditional cleaning approaches, the robot not only addresses the immediate challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic but also contributes to long-term hygiene management strategies. The robot's autonomous operation minimizes the risk of human exposure in high-risk areas, enhancing both safety and efficacy. The robot covers approximately 80% of the targeted area. This research offers a timely and innovative solution to the hygiene challenges amplified by the pandemic, providing a glimpse into the future of autonomous and targeted disinfection technologies.
