Abstract
A computer system obtains data from at least one sensor monitoring for health risk conditions, wherein a list of health risk conditions are pre-defined and stored in a server. The computer system determines that a health risk condition exists within an area based on the obtained data. The computer system determines a sanitization procedure for the health risk condition. The computer system initiates sanitization operations for the area according to the determined sanitization procedure.
Claims7
A method comprising:
- obtaining data from at least one sensor monitoring for health risk conditions, wherein a list of health risk conditions are pre-defined and stored in a server;
- obtaining patient history data from at least one sensor, of the one or more sensors, indicating a history of locations visited by a person;
- determining, by one or more computer processors, that a health risk condition exists within an area based on the obtained data, wherein the area is a location visited by the person;
- determining, by one or more computer processors, a sanitization procedure for the health risk condition;
- initiating, by one or more computer processors, sanitization operations for the area according to the determined sanitization procedure by using a motor-driven, mobile automated cleaning device of one or more motor-driven, mobile automated cleaning devices communicatively coupled to the one or more computer processors;
- and
- cleaning the area using the motor-driven, mobile automated cleaning device, wherein the motor-driven, mobile automated cleaning device responds to the health risk condition according to the data from the at least one sensor of the one or more sensors.
