MORE than 200 locally-made ultraviolet (UV) disinfecting mobile robots will be rolled out in shopping malls and the healthcare and transport sectors by the end of the year to help in the fight against Covid-19.

These autonomous UV mobile robots, known as Sunburst UV Bots, are made by local robotics technology firm PBA Group and are built with a lamp module emitting powerful ultraviolet-C (UV-C) light.
