Patent ID: 11298438

Abstract:
Systems and methods provide for intelligent hand hygiene and mobile device disinfection at a hand hygiene device. In one embodiment, the system detects, via a number of sensors, that a user is in proximity to the hand hygiene device, then provides instructions for the device to open a door to a compartment within the device. The system detects that a mobile device has been placed within the compartment, closes the door to the compartment, and performs disinfection of the mobile device within the compartment. Concurrently to performing disinfection of the mobile device, the system detects that at least one hand of the user has been placed under a dispensing component of the hand hygiene device, and then instructs the dispensing component to dispense hand sanitizer without the user coming into physical contact with the hand hygiene device. Upon completion of the disinfecting of the mobile device, the system opens the door to the compartment to release the mobile device to the user.
