MOBY P1 meets the norms and standards of hospital requirements for positive/negative pressure rooms – an essential part of controlling the spread of infectious diseases within healthcare facilities.
MOBY P1 lowers operating costs and can help improve outcomes in critical situations by making safe intra-hospital transport, emotional support, and participation in life possible. Because together, we get better.
In acute care settings, medical isolation leads to 17% longer stays, 23% higher costs, and higher readmission rates. MOBY P1 is the world’s first mobile protective vehicle created to secure freedom and human contact, even in the most precarious of medical situations.
Complete pathogen protection is achieved with dual HEPA filters inside and outside, operating under positive and negative pressure – to protect either the occupant or the surroundings. MOBY P1’s secure closure is both air and gas-tight.
When the canopy is closed, a 360-degree view is maintained. The zero-blind-spot interior is designed for fast and easy disinfection.
MOBY P1 comes with an electric motor capable of both active and passive drive, enabling anyone to drive or be driven in MOBY P1 smoothly.
Several modular access ports allow invertible gloves or device modules like patient monitors to be installed. While using MOBY P1, treatment can be continued – even direct touch with patients is possible.
A digital intercom transports sound naturally both ways. Clear communication without any restriction vision, speech, or touch creates the closest thing to normal, in-person interaction.
Several seat cushions for different heights create comfortable seating. Vertical hinged opening allows for easy entrance and exit, with dual-side assistance if necessary.

At UKSH, we will run a development pilot for the transport of infectious patients in their hospital for non-bedridden patients. In their process today, UKSH undergoes a costly and resource intensive practice of using ambulances to move infectious patients from one area of the hospital to another. With MOBY, the 2,600 bed hospital can transport patients safely without needing to disinfect ambulances or involve nearly as many staff members.
In Summer 2023, we will begin a trial in collaboration with Charité, a world-renowned top 10 hospital. The trial will focus on their pediatric oncology department, specifically targeting children who have undergone bone marrow transplants. By using MOBY, medically isolated patients can safely leave the ward and receive visitors. We aim to positively impact a patient's quality of life leading to better long term outcomes including lower likelihood of development disorders, anxiety, and depression.
