Abstract
A Selected-area Ultraviolet Disinfection (SUD) system which enables increased frequency of ultraviolet light treatment of spaces by improving the convenience, cost, safety, and/or efficacy. The core utility of the SUD system is to frequently and safely disinfect spaces where occupants are conducting their normal activities, enabled by a system constructed with a disinfecting light source that can direct and irradiate only selected areas (and corresponding volumes) that sensing and control components have determined are safe to disinfect, i.e. are not currently occupied.
