Hyderabad based Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed an automated contactless UVC sanitisation cabinet, calledDefence Research Ultraviolet Sanitiser (DRUVS).
The cabinet has been designed to sanitise mobile phones, iPads, laptops, currency notes, cheque leafs, challans, passbooks, paper, envelopes, etc.
The DRUVS cabinet has a contactless operation, which is very important to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
The operation is made automatic and contactless as the proximity sensor switches are clubbed with a drawer opening and closing mechanism.
It provides 360-degree exposure of UVC to the objects placed inside the cabinet. After sanitizing it, the system goes into sleep mode, and hence the operator need not wait or stand near the device.
