Case Study: FloorBotics achieves reliable, low-cost fleet connectivity and remote monitoring for Sanibot with Digi International’s XBee Cellular and Digi Remote Manager

FloorBotics Brings Connectivity and Intelligence to Innovative Floor-Cleaning Robot

FloorBotics, a Texas‑based robotics firm, developed Sanibot™, a set‑and‑forget UV floor‑disinfection robot designed to help hospitals reduce costly hospital‑acquired infections. Because fleets of autonomous cleaners must be centrally monitored and managed as they move through clinical spaces, the company needed reliable wireless connectivity and remote management to ensure consistent cleaning and rapid response to issues.

FloorBotics integrated Digi XBee® Cellular LTE Cat 1 modems and Digi Remote Manager, using pre‑provisioned development kits with bundled data plans to enable out‑of‑the‑box cellular connectivity, OTA firmware updates, logging for debugging, and real‑time status alerts. The result: fast development, low data costs, robust remote monitoring and diagnostics, improved uptime for customers, and a scalable connectivity model for expanding into other care settings.
