  • Publication number: 20220096684
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a disinfection system for combating biological, viral, fungal and parasitic agents. The vehicle includes a power source and is configured to generate at least one signal indicative the vehicle operation status. The disinfection system includes at least one electromagnetic emission device arranged to emit electromagnetic radiation; a controller having a plurality of stored scenarios. The controller is configured to receive the signal and to use the signal to select a scenario from the plurality of stored scenarios. The controller has output means to output control signals to the at least one electromagnetic emission device to control at least one of the intensity, wavelength, and duration of the emitted electromagnetic radiation in response to the selected scenario.
