dc.description.abstractHomes are an environment where many human activities take place, leaving them exposed to infections and other diseases, putting at risk the health of its residents, especially those who have a more fragile health [1]. Infection through the floor presents a high risk of contamination, and can occur through vomit, blood, feces, and waste that humans or pets may carry into the house [2], [3].The development of this project started with the idealization on how to reduce the number of infections occurred with origin on the floor, without the use of chemical products that can lead to intoxication of children and negative consequences for the environment [4]. Then, many ideas came up but only the imple mentation of a robot with minimal human contact remained, which led to the UVMove. It is a small size robot capable of disinfecting the floor where it operates, without the use of water or chemicals, dedicated only to the automatic dis infection with ultraviolet radiation. However, room for improvement is left, changes that could not be done with the available resources, like improving the disinfection effectiveness and its battery autonomy, with possible implementation in hospitals and houses, in the future.pt_PT
