Embodiment approach

[0228] Clause 1. A method of indicating and verifying completion of a desired surface treatment application to one or more surfaces, the method comprising the steps of:

[0229] A portable pole system is provided that includes:

[0230] a rod applicator comprising a surface treatment applicator;

[0231] a stick controller subsystem coupled to the stick applicator, the stick controller subsystem comprising: a computer program, a memory unit, and a central processing unit (CPU) coupled to the memory unit;

[0232]a selector assembly operatively coupled to the manual selector button;

[0233] indicator components; and

[0234] a power assembly coupled to the rod applicator;

[0235] The rod applicator is manually moved by the operator in a plurality of desired paths in a plurality of dwell zones to be surface treated, as well as a plurality of avoidance zones in or near a plurality of avoidance zones in which no surface treatment is to be carried out manually moving the rod ...

Abstract

A portable rod system for indicating and verifying application of a surface treatment and a method of using the same are provided. The portable rod system has a rod applicator, a rod controller subsystem, a selector assembly, an indicator component, and a power assembly. The rod controller subsystem includes a computer program, and a memory unit storing a path learned and recorded by an operator manually moving the rod applicator during a learning mode. The path includes a desired path in the stay zone to be surface-treated, and includes an avoidance zone path in or near the avoidance zone to be avoided. The portable lever system is used in an operating mode to measure manual movement of the lever applicator by an operator on the operating path based on the desired path. For a selected stay zone, the portable rod system compares the operating path to the desired path and indicates when the operating path deviates from the desired path, and when the rod applicator approaches and is oriented toward the avoidance zone.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to systems and methods for indicating and verifying surface treatment application, and more particularly, to indicating and verifying that sterilization, sanitization, and other surface treatment processes are sufficient and complete ) system and method. Background technique [0002] Manual processes using hand-held devices to perform surface treatment applications, such as sterilizing or disinfecting surfaces, can have varying degrees of consistency, and repeatability can prove challenging. When human operators perform such manual processes, it can be difficult to maintain a high degree of quality control and efficiency at the same time. For example, manual processes for sterilizing or disinfecting surfaces using hand-held ultraviolet (UV: ultraviolet) light devices may require long processing times to ensure complete surface preparation to account for operator variability. Even with substantial processing ma...
