Long work and high dexterity, comfortable touch screen, disinfection tracking and reporting system, multi-layered safety system to make sure the UV light goes out in front of people, can be used in rooms.

August Robotics launched its latest robot in Hong Kong in the middle of the past month. And is expected to launch in Australia in the next 2 months. Wyatt said that as a Melbourne child, he wanted to bring the robot to Australia as soon as possible, and to speak with government agencies.
