Patent ID: 10997721

Abstract:
A microbe scanning device and methods are disclosed. The device includes a housing that includes a sensor(s), output device(s) that conveys text/audio/images, and control circuit(s) coupled to the sensor(s) and output device(s). the sensor captures first ASD and second ASD. The first and second ASD each includes an image of an appendage captured using one or more of radio waves, visible light (“VL”), and infrared light (“IR”). The control circuit is configured to determine, using ASD, whether a user is present; determine, using ASD, whether hands are present when the user is present; determine, using ASD, whether microbiol material is present on the hands; generate a notification when the microbial material is present on the hands; transmit, via the output device, the notification; generate a notification when the microbial material is not present on the hands; and transmit the second notification when generated.
