Abstract:
An apparatus for destroying pathogens includes a platform and an LED matrix panel. The platform has a portion configured to permit passage of ultraviolet light therethrough. The LED matrix panel is disposed below the portion of the platform and includes a grid and a plurality of discreetly-controlled, ultraviolet light LEDs (UV LEDs). The grid defines a plurality of cells. Each UV LED is associated with one cell such that the cells direct the ultraviolet light emitted by the UV LEDs upwardly through the portion of the platform to sanitize an object supported on the portion of the platform.

Claim (Index 8):
A method of installing a footwear-sanitizing system, comprising:\n mounting a user interface to a wall of a room; providing a microcontroller; and providing an apparatus for destroying pathogens, the apparatus including:\n a platform having a portion configured to permit passage of ultraviolet light therethrough; \n and \n an LED matrix panel disposed below the portion of the platform and including:\n a grid defining a plurality of cells; and \n a plurality of discreetly-controlled, ultraviolet light LEDs (UV LEDs) that selectively emit ultraviolet light, wherein each UV LED of the plurality of UV LEDs is associated with one cell of the plurality of cells such that the plurality of cells direct the ultraviolet light emitted by the plurality of UV LEDs upwardly through the portion of the platform to sanitize an object supported on the portion of the platform; \n \n positioning the apparatus on a floor of the room; and connecting the user interface and the plurality of UV LEDS of the apparatus to an external power source, and\n configuring the microcontroller to receive and store information regarding each use of the footwear-sanitizing system by a user or an object supported on the portion of the platform.
