Haystack Robotics raises $3.95M Series A for autonomous disinfection
Its robot targets high-touch surfaces and responds to people entering the room.
Disinfection built for room turnover
Violet AI navigates a room without a pre-mapped floor plan, identifies high-touch surfaces and concentrates UV-C irradiation where it is needed. Person detection shuts off its lamps if someone enters, and a mobile app provides facilities with coverage reports after a cycle.
The commercially available robot is designed for hospitals, senior living, education, hospitality and other facilities that need repeatable environmental disinfection.
