Our design project goal is to design an improved faster way to wash hands. The device needs to be easy for any person to use and comparable to the gold standard, washing hands with soap and water. Ideally this technology will get rid of grime, kill germs, and dry hands all in less than 15 seconds. The optimal design will use minimal energy and filtered water for sustainability, as well as decrease usage costs. Finally the device will have a cost comparable to current public facilities and be safe for all users.
