Problem
Indoor spaces are breeding grounds for bacteria, viruses, mold, and allergens, leading to the spread of illnesses and impacting overall health and safety. Traditional disinfection methods can be labor-intensive, costly, and may not provide continuous protection. This creates a need for automated and efficient solutions to maintain healthy indoor environments.
Solution
Beacon offers an IoT-enabled smart device that provides real-time, continuous disinfection of indoor spaces by inactivating up to 99.99% of airborne and surface pathogens. The wall-mounted device utilizes Far-UVC light at 222nm, a specific wavelength that is safe for use in occupied spaces, unlike traditional UV light. Beacon is managed through a mobile app, allowing users to create custom disinfection schedules and monitor device performance. This technology provides a scalable and cost-effective solution for maintaining healthy indoor environments in various settings.
Target Audience
Beacon targets businesses across various sectors, including healthcare facilities, hospitality, educational institutions, and government buildings, as well as consumers and small businesses seeking to improve indoor air quality and reduce the spread of illness.
