The inception of Primech AI traces back to 2022, when Kin Wai Ho, the Chairman of Primech Holdings, and Vernon Kwek, the Co-Founder of Primech Holdings, embarked on a mission to establish an AI Robotics entity tailored for facility services. This initiative took shape with the establishment of a robotics laboratory under the guidance of Charles Ng, Vice President of Innovation and Technology at Primech Holdings. After the AI robotics laboratory was established, a collaborative partnership took shape with Richard Zhang (Co-Founder, CTO of Primech AI), due to his invaluable expertise and prior groundbreaking work on a revolutionary robotic arm. In 2023, the foundational work to formalize Primech’s AI robotics laboratory operations and launch Primech AI as a subsidiary operation began.
With patents pending, Primech AI will release Hytron Mark 1, a fully autonomous AI-powered toilet cleaning robot by the end of fourth quarter of 2024. It will feature 3D-cleaning and use electrolyzed water for enhanced efficiency, making it an ideal solution for modern sanitation needs.
Hytron’s versatile design and advanced machine learning capabilities make it adaptable to various facilities, including airports, hospitals, commercial buildings, schools, hotels, and shopping malls. It can learn and optimize cleaning patterns, ensuring thorough cleaning and high hygiene standards, leading to seamless operations and improved user satisfaction.
Mr. Kin Wai Ho, Chief Executive Officer of Primech, said, "The launch of Primech AI marks a significant milestone in our journey toward a smarter, more sustainable future and is a testament to our commitment to innovation."
Charles Ng, Vice President of Innovation and Technology of Primech Holdings and Co-Founder, COO of Primech AI said, "Primech AI’s revolutionary toilet-cleaning robot uses cutting-edge AI and empowers businesses to elevate their standards of hygiene while optimizing operations like never before."
Primech AI will be attending the CleanEnviro Summit Singapore (CESG) from June 19 to June 21 at the Sands Expo & Convention Centre (Marina Bay Sands) in Singapore, where Primech AI will be showcasing its Hytron Mark 1, a fully autonomous AI-powered toilet-cleaning robot for conference attendees at booth C10.
