Sensor based automated washroom monitoring system

摘要

Sanitation is one of the basic necessities required by the human race. Various statistics shows that poor sanitation is a cause for various life threatening diseases. In our work we consider the hygiene of washrooms in public places as they are places from where diseases can be contracted. The cleanliness of washrooms in airports, malls and other public places also decide on business, as customers will be unsatisfied if washrooms are not cleaned regularly. Taking into consideration the various positive benefits of cleaning washrooms consistently in public places we have come out with an automated sensor based system which monitors washrooms for cleanliness by monitoring the air inside the washroom. The air inside the washroom can indicate various components of gases present inside the washroom thereby helping to identify whether the washroom is clean. If the values exceed the threshold value then an alert is sent via text to the cleaning team at the public space.
