Sunglasses for your body
A fully automatic sun-protection spray booth for the world's finest resorts — full-body, pharmaceutical-grade sunscreen in under 25 seconds, billed straight to the guest's room.
The problem
The Smart Booth
The Sun Pearls Smart Booth sprays the whole body with premium sunscreen in under 25 seconds. A rotating floor, synchronised to a precision nozzle array, delivers the correct dose every time — no staff, no greasy hands, no missed spots. The booth self-washes after every guest.
How it works
Only Sun Pearls
Skin never tans evenly — shoulders burn while legs lag behind. The Smart Booth sprays your choice of different SPF factors on each body zone in a single pass: 50 on the back, 30 on the chest and 20 on the legs.
Parents select their child's protection in the app; the booth delivers it, and the child cannot override the choice. As the live UV index changes, guests receive a prompt on their mobile to reapply or step up a factor.
A connected platform
Billing integrates with the hotel's system — by the time the guest steps out, the session is on their folio.
The server watches every tank and alerts the local team before anything runs low.
Each bottle is tracked from fill to spray — dilution or wrong-tank errors are instantly detected and reported automatically.
The booth rinses itself after every use, ready for the next guest without staff involvement.
Rotation speed, nozzle function and spray pressure are checked every night, automatically.
The spray cycle locks to the rotating floor, so the booth always knows exactly which part of the body it is coating.
Proven with real guests
Pilot deployments ran at pools, lakesides and resorts in Prague, Crete and Cyprus. Guests praised the ease, the cream quality and the fun of it — and luxury hotels and beach clubs in Dubai have shown serious interest. The engineering heritage runs deep. An earlier generation of booths was built in our Prague facility for different purposes and installed in the Czech Republic, Germany and Australia. The technology was protected by patents granted in the US, Europe, Russia and Australia.

The business model
The founders
Systems design · Patent holder
Serial entrepreneur Gerry Hipperson invented and developed the Sun Pearls synchronised pulse spraying concept and is the named patent holder. He, along with his partner Jana Samkova, created the Czech Republic's largest outdoor advertising platform — some 26,000 sites — and sold the enterprise in 2005. He also brings decades of high-tech systems-engineering delivery across the Middle East, Europe and Africa.
Operations · Product & partnerships
Jana Samkova ran the 100-person operations of the advertising platform through to its sale. She also co-founded the booth business, led the formulation and health certification of the unique creams, and built relationships at the highest levels of UAE luxury hotel groups. More recently, a commercially successful film producer, selling full-length comedy productions to television stations, cinema chains and Netflix.
