Abstract

An automatically moving disinfection robot for disinfecting surfaces has a device housing, a drive means for the movement of the disinfection robot within a surrounding area comprising at least one room, a navigation means for the navigation and self-localization of the disinfection, a disinfection means, and a control means for controlling the disinfection activity. The control means controls a locally limited disinfection in only one subregion of the room, or a locally limited disinfection of only one object, in a fully automated manner. The disinfection means has a shielding means for separating the locally limited subregion to be disinfected from adjacent subregions of the same room. The shielding means is a housing, which is open only on one side and which is placed around the object or against the surface to be disinfected, so that the disinfection only takes place within the housing, but not outside of the housing.
