As the COVID-19 pandemic shut down most of the world in spring of 2020, Inertia sought out various ways to help through our product development skills. The result was a concept for an autonomous disinfecting robot that could help clean high-traffic areas such as airports, food courts, or malls during closed hours.

Along with one of our manufacturing partners, we experimented with various use-case scenarios, determined the necessary functional requirements, and defined the ideal product-market fit. From there we were able to engineer the unit’s basic capabilities and design an aesthetically pleasant product that effortlessly delivers on our original goal.
