AUTOMATIC HAND WASHING MACHINE FOR HOSPITAL USE DURING PANDEMIC

Abstract

The Automatic hand washing machine initiative aims to support people in limiting the spread of Covid-19, germs, and bacteria in hospital. Direct contact at the sink and a lack of community awareness about adequate hand washing can transmit the virus and bacteria. The research's objective is to build a touch-free handwashing device that will aid in resolving the issue of preventing people from contracting the virus in hospital. The project incorporates a soap, water, and tissue dispenser to ensure proper hand washing. After placing a hand on the sensor, the soap and water was released simultaneously to encourage user to use soap. The water will be released afterwards for washing the hands. The tissue will spin in order to dry the hands. This study successfully showed a functional water, soap, and tissue dispenser in a touch-less system that is acceptable for use in hospital
