EPIC iO releases autonomous room disinfection solution
Fort Mill, United States – EPIC iO, a technology provider in applied AI + IoT (artificial intelligence and internet of things), announced EPIC iO AIR, a new room disinfection appliance, which is safe, automatically disinfects all rooms, and kills bacteria, viruses and mold to protect occupants.
This briefcase-sized biosecurity device inactivates pathogens by delivering carefully timed micro-doses of FDA-approved ozone. Ozone is proven to inactivate serious pathogens like MRSA, Staph, and Strep, making classrooms, public spaces, and medical facilities far safer than they were before. Compared with traditional disinfectants that use chemical sprays and foggers, the EPIC iO AIR disinfects evenly throughout a room, including hidden surfaces, and is safer and easier to use.
Designed for use over a stretch of several hours (such as overnight), the automated, data-driven solution uses EPIC iO’s open AI + IoT platform, DeepInsights, to continuously monitor the atmosphere in rooms as HVAC systems recirculate it, ensuring that the proper dose of ozone is delivered at all times. The solution also uses IoT sensors to deliver the optimal dose to achieve maximum disinfection, automatically taking into account the room size, air changes per hour, and the level of contamination.
“Many organisations are looking to improve their hygiene protocol to one that is more effective throughout the space yet still safe to administer, environmentally sustainable, and automated with consistent outcomes,” says Ken Mills, CEO of EPIC iO. “The world has struggled with the spread of disease, but now we can help to address the concerns we’ve all had around health and safety recently by creating safer spaces for everyone.”
