E

powerful UV lights

Eight UV-C lamps deliver 200-280 nm of concentrated irradiation without the harmful O-zone found in other UV disinfection devices.

E

AI "smart disinfection"

The robot detects high-touch objects and concentrates the light on these contamination zones as it navigates around the room.

E

low maintenance

Easy to replace lamps are effective, practical, and economic. Includes a standard battery and charger that can be plugged into any wall outlet.

D

touch screen + mobile app

Simply select the disinfection level and deploy the robot. Check its progress and download reports wirelessly from your phone or tablet using our Android app.

D

autonomous self-driving

Room gets rearranged? No problem, this AI robot navigates in real time without any pre-mapping required.

D

safety features

Cameras monitor the disinfection zone and shut off the bulbs immediately if a person is detected. Onboard voice commands + LED’s make status updates accessible.

How does UV-C light destroy microbes? wonder icon

exploding cell membranes

Microbes, also referred to as pathogens, are tiny living organisms like bacteria, viruses, and fungi that can cause a variety of illnesses. UV-C is a special type of ultraviolet light that damages the DNA and proteins inside these microbes.

When exposed to UV-C light, the rays damage their internal structures causing the protective cell membranes to break apart. This damage makes it impossible for microbes (and spores) to survive or reproduce. The cell-destroying ability of UV-C light is a widely accepted disinfection methods used around the world today.

Manual vs UV Disinfection

Manual cleaning with wipes or sprays is a requirement, but it doesn’t catch everything—especially on high-touch surfaces. In fact, manual cleaning alone leaves up to 50% of bacteria on hard surfaces.

When UV-C light is added, it can cut down remaining germs by an additional 90%. That’s a huge difference when health and safety are on the line.*

Real-World Microbiology Studies
adding UV-C to target gram-positive Cocci

Haystack’s Violet UV hospital robot consistently demonstrated a greater than 4-log reduction in bacteria, translating to a bacterial cell survival rate of less than 1 in 10,000.

Wow this works, but is it safe?

Adding UV disinfection is an effective, science-backed way to boost your cleaning routine, however it’s important to remember UV-C light can harm skin and eyes, so it should only run in unoccupied spaces.

What happens if someone walks into the room while the lamps are on?

Our robots are the most advanced UV hospital robot on the market. Simply deploy your Haystack smart robot and exit the room. If a person enters the disinfection zone, the robot will automatically shut off the bulbs for safety and send an alert to the app.

UV-C works on 
  • MRSA
  • E. coli
  • C. diff
 ... and more
UV-C works on MRSA, E. coli, C. diff and more

MRSA

MRSA is a drug-resistant form of staph bacteria that can lead to healthcare-associated infections such as cellulitis, sepsis, and post-operative wound infections.

P. aeruginosa

P. aeruginosa (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) is a bacteria that can cause serious infections in the lungs –especially in ventilated patients.

C.diff

C. diff (Clostridioides difficile) is a spore-forming bacteria that causes diarrhea and colon damage. Spores can survive on surfaces for up to 5 months.

CRE

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae are highly resistant bacteria that tend to cause severe infections including sepsis. Mortality rates as high as 50% for severe infections.

VRE

VRE (Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus) is a type of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that often causes urinary tract infections, bacteremia, sepsis, and infections in surgical wounds or catheters.

C. Auris

Candida auris is a drug-resistant fungus that can cause serious infections in the bloodstream, wounds, or ears, especially in immunocompromised patients.
