An Approach to Disinfection using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle/Quadcopter

Abstract

Necessity is the mother of invention. The objective of this research paper is to develop a drone which is able to disinfect places and surfaces which can be controlled by a person, who is in distant safer place. According to recent scientific studies, there are evidences that the pathogens are able to reside in different surfaces from few hours to several days. This drone will be able to kill or inactivate viruses and bacteria which cause different infections. The advantage of using drones in this method of disinfection is such that it avoids the risk facing by the person handling the chemical disinfectants, saving time, easy to access difficult sites low costs and less labor. We are designing a quad copter which is a multi rotor, in order to achieve the same.
