With this device, users will be able to thoroughly cleanse their hands of germs, and help prevent the spread of sickness. To use the device, you swipe your hand underneath a sensor located at the front of the device, starting the timer.

    Full Description

    • The device is assembled with an Arduino Kit provided by the university, a plastic container to house the technology, and a 3D printed part used to house the sensor. The timer in the device is programmed to count down from 25 seconds; while counting down, a green LED located on top of the 3D printed part will flash for each second. Once the timer reaches the 25th second, a tune will play and a red LED next to the green one will light up, letting you know it is time to finish washing your hands.
    • The product can come in many different shapes, sizes, and colors, and the countdown can be changed; it can be customized to match any aesthetic or image one desires. There are many places that a device like this would be beneficial to have; In hospitals, this would be incredibly useful for Surgeons, as they have to be very thorough with the cleansing process; in restaurants, as most dishes require very specific cooking times; daycares, as children are very susceptible to illnesses; senior residence homes, as the elderly are also susceptible to many illnesses - really anywhere with a sink.
    • Product designed and built by Brett Towery, Jakob Okon and William Wright.

      This device looks very useful. Gives the user incentive to live a clean and healthy life style while making the user wash there hand for the correct amount of time.

    2. Jake Williamson

      Great idea, I think this would be really useful for businesses to help staff and employees keep track of how long they are washing their hands!

    3. Steve Zatulovski

      Very good item. This is useful because it will tell me if I washed my hands too fast or not using the tune

    4. Vincent Petruccelli

      This is an excellent idea to ensure that people have washed their hands for the proper amount of time. I also think that it could help people of getting into the habit of washing their hands for longer than they most likely already do, which could improve public health.

      Yes, I really like this project. Very helpful in these times of need. Will help me keep clean and protected

    8. Brandon Pitman

      I really like this idea. I bet a good majority of people do not wash their hands according to the CDC guidelines and this would provide a great way to ensure it. I would recommend it and personally really enjoy the tone it plays when you are done washing.

    9. Ronald

      This product is very useful during our current issues. It is also portable and durable. It is all of these things for a reasonable price.

    10. Jackson Reeves

      This is a wonderful product to keep track of time while washing your hands, I know I have a hard time doing the 2 birthday songs back to back to know how long I have been washing my hands but this is a lot easier than that and is very well made!

    11. William

      Looks promising. I see a lot of potential in this prototype. It really stands out compared to other products out there that serve this purpose. The idea of customizing individual products makes this product fit more perfectly with different environments like hospitals, restaurants, nursing homes, etc.
