Abstract:
Corona Virus (COVID-19) is wreaking havoc in the world. Almost every country is suffering
from the Corona Virus. WHO has already announced it a Pandemic disease and many cities are
under lockdown situations and changed our lifestyle. In this current scenario of the global outbreak,
it is advised by WHO(world health organization) to maintain Healthy Hand Wash and Sanitation
Habits, but the main problem is the way we do it, that is by physical touch. Touching alcohol
containers or hand sanitizers with infected hands can spread the virus to the next person. So we
will build an automatic hand sanitizer dispenser that uses IR sensors to detect the presence of a
hand and activates a pump to pour the liquid on the hand.
You can find several Arduino automated liquid dispensers circulating the web. But my
intention is to keep it simple and cheap so that anyone can replicate it. Possibly the easiest solution
for this purpose is to use a simple transistor or MOSFET with an IR proximity sensor, which would
also drastically reduce the costs. Obviously, the absence of a microcontroller removes control of
over spilling, but using a smaller nozzle would physically limit the flow of liquid. Alcohol is basically
a solvent, and also very good disinfectant when compared to liquid soap or solid soap, also it does
not need water to wash off since it is volatile and vaporizes instantly after application to hands. It is
also proven that a concentration of >70% alcohol can kill Corona virus in hands.
