Hard surface disinfection system and method

Abstract

A system and method for disinfecting hard surfaces in an area such as a hospital room including a light source emitting UV light and a reflector mounted behind the light source for concentrating and directing the light toward a target. The light source and reflector rotate to direct the concentrated beam around a room, thereby making more efficient use of the energy being emitted.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A disinfection system capable of disinfecting a space without the use of chemicals comprising:
 a plurality of independently placeable light towers, each of said plurality of independently placeable light towers including:
 a communications module that sends and receives data; 
 an ultraviolet light source; 
 a controller in data communication with said communications module of each of the plurality of independently placeable light towers, 
   wherein said controller is capable of relaying data from each of said plurality of independently placeable light towers to any or all of the other independently placeable light towers.
