Businesses have deployed smart sanitation technologies to upgrade their COVID-19 cleaning and disinfection protocols. These robots take on the recurring tasks required in ensuring public’s health and safety while they are inside the establishments. They also reduce person-to-person interaction.

Part of SM Supermalls’ #SafeMallingAtSM campaign is the deployment of Santi, a sanitation robot that disinfects areas with VirusDOC, an FDA-approved disinfectant that is 100 percent hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and non-corrosive. 

Santi diffuses the disinfectant it carries, which, according to earlier reports, can kill 99.9 percent of microorganisms within seconds. A friendly cleaning robot, Santi is equipped with an HD camera for face recognition and a microphone to greet customers.

Santi joins his “brother” SAM, the country’s first indoor smart robot, that first arrived in select SM Supermalls to help customers navigate their way inside. The robot brothers can be seen roaming around SM Megamall and SM Aura Premier, among other SM malls.
