Without technological devices, people are rarely able to determine if they washed their hands effectively. We have created a prototype that is a reliable and accurate hand contamination detector that helps people quickly determine how well an individual has washed their hands. To realize this prototype, we use the visible light spectrum that fluoresces the contamination, and this fluorescence is filtered from the background light with a bandpass filter that a camera ends up picking up.

We have sectioned the prototype into bigger themes; hardware, software and casing. In these themes we have further made gates that need to be achieved in order to go to the next step. We iterate through this process until we hit our customer’s needs, aka our goals.
