We are Project Salus, a mobile autonomous disinfecting robot. Our objective is to provide a safe and low-cost solution to disinfect surfaces in populated indoor spaces. Our unit will identify frequently touched surfaces (referred to as hotspots), navigate the environment, and efficiently disinfect these areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jacob Miller:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jacob graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Computer Engineering in spring 2020. Most of his prior robotics experience is related to autonomous vehicle technology, both in industry and research. In Minnesota, he worked for two years at a startup called VSI Labs doing research and development on autonomous vehicles. Due to the startup nature of VSI Labs, Jacob was exposed to all phases and major subsystems of the projects.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
