Robots are often well-suited for dirty jobs. And there aren’t many jobs dirtier than cleaning airport bathrooms.
Primech AI recently launched its next-generation HYTRON bathroom cleaning robot. The HYTRON mobile manipulator is designed to clean bathrooms in airports, hospitals, hotels, shopping malls, and office buildings. It can autonomously navigate tight spaces and conduct multiple tasks, according to Primech.
The service robot completed its first commercial trials in September 2024, and the company said it received positive customer feedback.
The company’s latest model still uses the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Super System-on-Module (SoM). Primech said this enables energy efficiency, real-time data processing, and intelligent navigation. Combined with advanced 3D-cleaning capabilities and electrolyzed water technology, the company claimed HYTRON ensures consistent, high-quality cleaning while significantly reducing manual labor requirements.
“The unveiling of our next-generation HYTRON marks a pivotal moment in our mission to revolutionize facility management,” said Charles Ng, chief Operating Officer of Primech AI. “We’ve reimagined what an autonomous cleaning robot can be – both a functional tool and a statement of innovation that turns heads while delivering unmatched cleaning performance. This new model is smarter, faster, and more efficient, setting a new standard for the industry.”

Primech said the new HYTRON features significant technological enhancements, including:
- Enhanced Navigation System: Advanced AI-powered pathfinding and obstacle detection for better operational efficiency
- Stronger Sanitation Power: Upgraded cleaning mechanisms delivering deeper, more thorough sanitation
- Refined AI Capabilities: Next-generation machine learning algorithms for optimized cleaning patterns and performance
- Improved User Interface: Streamlined controls and monitoring systems for enhanced operational management
“The new HYTRON embodies our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in robotics and smart facility solutions. By combining exceptional performance with striking design, we are meeting market demands and creating new expectations for what autonomous cleaning technology should deliver,” Ken Ho, CEO of Primech Holdings, said.
