DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0028] The applicant recognizes that simple hygiene practices carried out at the individual level, such as handwashing, can have a powerful impact on the health of communities and groups and the reduction of pathogen transmission. When members within a group, for example, practice consistent and proper handwashing techniques, the incidence rate, infection rate, and other factors within this group may all be more effectively controlled.

[0029] Unlike treatments for reducing the transmission of pathogens, such as the administration of antibiotics, the Applicant recognizes that handwashing is low-cost, does not require contact with a healthcare provider, requires only basic skills or technical knowledge, and has a relatively low risk of misuse that can lead to dangerous antibiotic resistance. Thus, the Applicant has shown that handwashing can be deployed as an inexpensive additional medical therapy that is particularly effective for antimicrobial, antibacterial, and other hygienic activities and can be directly deployed in environments where the probability of initial contact between humans and such pathogens is high. Such environments include, but are not limited to, kitchens, bathrooms, public spaces where large numbers of people potentially come into contact with contaminated surfaces (offices (especially those with an "open office" design), sports venues, concert halls, convention centers, etc.), or other types of environments where pathogens may be spreading among groups.

[0030] However, despite the significant advantages of low-cost hygiene practices such as handwashing, compliance rates within groups and communities are often lower than recommended. There are often too few people consistently washing their hands within a group, and handwashing techniques may be inadequate, such as not applying soap or disinfectant to the hands within a sufficient period to kill pathogens. Since handwashing is often a private, individual task and activity, the applicant recognizes that it can be difficult to monitor and measure the completeness of handwashing and other hygiene activities, and to know where to deploy public health resources to the areas and groups where intervention is most needed. The applicant recognizes that this is always an important healthcare issue, but with the advent of events such as the SARS virus and the COVID-19 pandemic, such basic personal hygiene activities have become very important for the health of groups worldwide. Therefore, the applicant recognizes the need for automated methods, systems, and devices to proactively anticipate, measure, and monitor hygiene actions within a group, induce appropriate personal hygiene actions, provide incentives therefor, track hygiene actions, and implement and maintain effective management of hygiene. Many of the methods, systems, and devices disclosed herein can be integrated into existing hygiene environments and devices, containers, and pipes (such as soap or other dispensers) and can automatically detect hygiene activities without being obtrusive. The data collected using these methods, systems, and devices can be integrated within a platform of data facilities, analytical processing (such as machine learning, artificial intelligence tools, etc.) and can be associated with external resources of the facility where the platform is deployed or associated. Through reporting tools and other outbound data processing techniques, the platform may be able to continuously update administrators who oversee hygiene promotion or other public health initiatives. The results have shown an improvement in public health and a reduction in the incidence and prevalence of disease.

[0031] The present disclosure relates to a platform for monitoring and modifying hygiene actions on platform 102 of FIG. 1. Platform 102 may include a plurality of smart hygiene devices 104. The smart hygiene devices 104 may communicate with a platform hub 106 operably connected to a platform server 108. A plurality of platform data sources, databases, and data facilities 110 are included in and / or associated with platform 102. Such platform data 110 may include, but is not limited to, user data 114, behavior data 116, event data 118, device data 120, audiovisual content 122, ID data 124, or some other type of data.

The device data may include, but is not limited to, devices of users operating in the facility where the smart hygiene device is provided, such as the mobile computing device 182, facility smart devices 142 such as cameras, motion detectors, or some other type of facility smart device 142, and / or information included in or associated with the devices. The audiovisual content 122 may include, but is not limited to, content that can be played back to users near the smart hygiene device 104, such as greetings, personalized instructions, or incentives to engage in hygiene actions such as handwashing. The ID data 124 may include, but is not limited to, personal identification information related to users near the smart hygiene device 104, such as an ID badge or card for entering the facility or an area of the facility.

[0033] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis engine 112. The analysis engine 112 may include a classifier 126, a prediction module 128, a learning machine 130, a recommendation module 132, AI processing 134, an optimization module 136, an automation module 138, a personalization module 140, or some other type of analysis processing module, but is not limited thereto. The analysis engine 112 may ingest data collected by the platform 102, such as data related to the use of the smart hygiene device 104, or data obtained by a third-party data source 148 external to the platform. The analysis engine 112 may build, test, and validate machine learning algorithms and models based at least in part on the ingested data and / or the collected data, and may use such algorithms and models for the purpose of classifying, predicting, recommending, optimizing, and / or personalizing the performance of the platform 102 and the use of the smart hygiene device 104. The analysis engine may perform AI processing 134 on the platform data 110 and / or data from the external data source 148. For example, AI processing 134 may be used to optimize the placement of the smart hygiene device 104 to encourage modification of hygiene practices among the group working in or visiting the facility. Results and actions obtained based at least in part on the AI processing may be automated by the analysis engine 112 of the platform 102.

[0034] In an embodiment, the platform 102 and the smart hygiene device 104 associated with the platform 102 may be disposed in or on a facility, such as a medical facility or a business facility, including at least one facility smart device hub 144 and other facility smart devices 142 operably connected to a facility server 146. The facility server 146 may further be associated with a wearable device 174, a personnel identifier 172 such as a user's login or account information, and / or some other device such as an external data source 148.

[0035] In an embodiment, the external data source 148 may include, but is not limited to, facility data 150, context data 152, medical records 154, GPS data 156, inventory 158 data, supplier data 160, advertising data 164, personnel data 166, hygiene data 168, or any other third-party data 162. One third-party server 170 or multiple third-party servers may also be operably connected to the platform 102 and the facility server 146.

[0036] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may provide an application programming interface (API) 178 and a software development kit (SDK) 180 so that developers and the development platform 188 can create applications that interact with the platform 102. The application 105 and the dashboard 176 may be associated with the platform 102 and may be used to configure, operate, and / or visualize the performance of the platform. The dashboard 176 may include an interface and a set of services for an operator to configure action modification stimulus events and timing sequences of types, and to configure a set of trigger events and rewards for action modification activities of a set of devices managed by the platform. The dashboard 176 may be displayed on a computing device including, but not limited to, the mobile computing device 182 or the web browser 184, and may be used to provide a user experience that promotes user awareness of the need to take hygiene actions. The platform 102 may include a set of end-user mobile application interfaces configured on the platform for inducing user behavior and enabling an operator of the platform to configure a set of parameters of the platform 102. A game module 186 may be provided for gamification of the platform data 110.

[0037] In an embodiment, platform 102 may include multiple outbound data functions including, but not limited to, cooperation with report 192, health campaign module 190, social media entity 194 or other third-party platforms 196, and / or general communication platforms such as email 198.

[0038] In an embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2A-2D, platform 102 may include a processing unit and a platform hub 106. The platform hub 106 communicates in real time with a plurality of smart hygiene devices 104, such as handwashing sensor 200, via a long-range wide area network (“LoRa network”), with a server via a WiFi network, and, if necessary, with a service terminal via the LoRa network or a USB port. The platform hub 106 may also include some internal sensors that monitor and acquire physical parameters including, but not limited to, ambient light levels within the visible range, temperature, humidity, air quality, or some other physical parameter. In light of the present disclosure, it will be recognized that the drawings of this device include many separable protectable decorative features independent of many of the functional features discussed herein.

[0039] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include a battery-powered smart hygiene device 104 that is a handwashing sensor having an active infrared proximity sensor 200. The handwashing sensor having the active infrared proximity sensor 200 may be separated from a container, a pipe, and / or a soap or disinfectant dispenser, or may be integrated with the soap or disinfectant dispenser. It may detect a hand hygiene event by detecting a hand in the dispenser area and wirelessly transmit that information to the platform hub 106. An LED may be lit to indicate the detected hand hygiene event. The battery-powered passive infrared motion sensor 200 may be placed on a wall, next to a door, or some other location. The sensor may be used to detect when a person enters the room. The sensor may be programmed to detect the direction of movement and only detect when a person enters the room and ignore when a person leaves the room. Alternatively, it may be programmed to detect both when a person enters the room and when a person leaves the room. Further, this information may be transmitted to the platform hub 106. An LED may be lit to notify of the detected entry event.

[0040] In an embodiment, the platform hub 106 includes a 16-bit microcontroller unit PIC24EP512GP806 with 518K bytes of program memory and 52K bytes of data memory, a display unit with 24 green LEDs and 24 blue LEDs that can be automatically dimmed in 256 steps, an audio unit that can play pre-recorded voice or music using a small built-in speaker, a USB / UART converter used for a 5V power supply that can be set up with a service laptop, a WiFi module unit ESP12S that communicates with a server using the 2.4GHz range, an antenna disposed on the module itself, a LoRa module RFM69HCW that exchanges data with sensors and service units using the 915MHz range, an antenna separated from the module, such as an antenna disposed on the main PCB, a visible light sensor that monitors ambient light levels, a temperature / humidity sensor (included in a single chip) that monitors temperature and humidity, an air quality sensor that monitors air quality, a DC supply unit that guarantees a supply voltage of 3.3V to the MCU, RF module, and sensors, a 5V power supply (+ / -0.25V) externally driven via a USB micro-B connector, for example, from a standard 5V USB charger or a service laptop, and a peak current consumption of less than 400mA.

[0041] Figure 3 shows an exemplary layout of the components of the platform hub 106, where the left side, Figure 300, shows the upper half of the enclosure and the right side, Figure 302, shows the lower half.

[0042] In an embodiment, there may be two main PCBs in the platform hub 106. The internal circuits may be arranged on the main PCBs, and the audio, speakers, USB / UART converters, and USB connectors may be arranged on separate PCBs. The two PCBs may be connected via a ribbon cable and an 8-pole connector. A plurality of PCBs that house the ambient light sensors and are permanently soldered to the main PCB may be added, and a USB connector may be housed on one of the PCBs. FIG. 4 shows an exemplary block diagram 400 of the platform hub 106, and FIG. 5 shows an exemplary schematic diagram 500 of the platform hub 106.

[0043] In an embodiment, the handwashing sensor 600 may optically monitor the space under a soap dispenser or hand sanitizing unit, container, or pipe. In one example, the sensor may have multiple windows, for example, one for a modulated infrared (~840 nm) transmitter and the other for an infrared receiver. The handwashing sensor may be battery-powered or wired. The sensor may be triggered by a hand or some other reflective object within the sensor's field of view, for example, at a distance of about 12 inches (about 30 centimeters) or closer to the sensor.

[0044] Figures 6A - 6C are, respectively, a front view, a side view, and a perspective view of a hand - washing sensor 600 capable of accommodating internal components. The internal components include an 8 - bit microcontroller unit PIC 18LF14K22 with a 16K - byte program memory, a 512 - byte data RAM memory, and a 256 - byte data EEPROM memory; an infrared transmitter that is supplied by short bursts of modulated current, emits bursts of infrared light in the range of ~840 nm at a predetermined period of 100 ps, and is repeated every 200 milliseconds; an infrared receiver that can detect the reflected infrared light when an object is present; a LoRa module RFM69HCW that can operate in the 915 - MHz range for data exchange with the platform hub 106; an antenna separated from the module and arranged on the main PCB; and a setup button arranged on the main PCB, but not limited thereto. In one example, this button can be accessed only when the enclosure is open, an LED may be used to notify the observer that the sensor has been triggered, and it may be powered by two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries to supply 3V of power. In one example, the batteries can be accessed only when the enclosure is open.

[0045] Figure 7 shows a layout 700 of the components of the hand - washing sensor 600.

[0046] In an embodiment, there may be multiple PCBs in the hand - washing sensor 600. Components including the battery may be arranged on the main PCB. The infrared transmitter and the infrared receiver may be arranged on another PCB. Figure 8 shows a block diagram 800 of the hand - washing sensor 600, and Figure 9 shows a schematic diagram 900 of the hand - washing sensor 600.

[0047] A passive infrared (PIR) sensor may monitor the dynamic shift of infrared radiation (in the range of 5 to 15 pm) in a defined area and, for example, detect the movement of a human body. In this example, since two independent sensors are used within the same housing, it is possible to simultaneously detect movement in two areas along with the direction of the detected movement. In one example, the positions of the PIR sensors enable monitoring the sides and the front of the device. FIGS. 10A to 10D show, respectively, a front view, a side view, and two perspective views of the side monitoring sensor 1000. FIGS. 11A to 11D show, respectively, a front view, a side view, and two perspective views of the front monitoring sensor 1100. In light of the present disclosure, it will be recognized that the drawings of the device include many separable protectable decorative features independent of many of the functional features discussed herein.

[0048] In an embodiment, the internal components housed in the passive infrared presence sensor may include, but are not limited to, an 8-bit microcontroller unit PIC18LF14K22 with 16K bytes of program memory, 512 bytes of data RAM memory, and 256 bytes of data EEPROM memory, and a PIR with a Fresnel lens. By rearranging a detector with two separated fields of view to detect two separated channels, the MCU unit can determine the direction of movement. The LoRa module RFM69HCW exchanges data with the platform hub 106 using the 915 MHz range. The antenna may be separated from the module and disposed on the main PCB, and the setup button may be disposed on this PCB. This button can be accessed only when the enclosure is open. The LED may be used to notify an observer that the sensor has been triggered, and the power may be supplied by two 1.5V AA alkaline batteries at 3V. In one example, the batteries can be accessed only when the enclosure is open.

[0049] In an embodiment, there may be multiple PCBs in the PIR sensor. Components including a battery may be on the main PCB. FIG. 12 shows an exemplary layout 1200 of a handwashing sensor component (bottom view). The PIR sensor may be on the main PCB, and the LED may be on a separate PCB. FIG. 13 shows an exemplary block diagram 1300 of a passive infrared sensor, and FIG. 14 shows an exemplary schematic diagram 1400 of a passive infrared sensor.

[0050] The field of view of the handwashing sensor may, in one example, be a cone having an angle of about 30° and may extend up to about 12 inches (about 30 cm). The approximate position and orientation of the cone 1500 can be represented as shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B. The handwashing sensor may be arranged to be triggered by a person's hand or some other object associated with the person when the person is using the contents of a container, pipe, and / or dispenser. In an embodiment, the sensor may be arranged so that it cannot be triggered by other objects (dispensers, napkins, bottles, etc.). In an example, multiple handwashing sensors may be arranged in a room covered by one platform hub 106. FIG. 16 shows a typical arrangement of a handwashing sensor 1600. In these embodiments, the field of view is not blocked by any object.

[0051] In an embodiment, the handwashing sensor 600 may be arranged so that its field of view extends horizontally (FIG. 17A) or at an angle (FIG. 17B) (1700). This may depend on the configuration of the objects around the container, pipe, and / or dispenser. The PIR sensor may be arranged on the wall next to the entrance of the room. In an example, it may be arranged as shown in FIG. 18A of the left side view 1800 using a side monitoring sensor, but in some cases, due to insufficient space and inability to attach to a narrow part of the wall, a front monitoring sensor may be used. This is represented in FIG. 18B of the right side view 1802.

[0052] In other examples, the optimal vertical position of the PIR sensor may be about 50 to 55 inches above the floor level. Placing the PIR sensor in a low position may cause functional problems, as there is a possibility that parts of loose clothing that are not close to the human body are too cold to trigger the sensor. The PIR sensor may be placed above the entrance of the room, on the wall, or on the ceiling. In an example, as shown in FIG. 19, a plurality of PIR sensors may be placed in a room 1900 covered by one platform hub 106.

[0053] In an example, the platform hub 106 may display the current state of the unit using, for example, two concentric rings with LEDs. The inner ring may symbolize a leaf, a tree, or other object or shape, and the outer ring may prompt a person entering the room to wash their hands and may display a confirmation after handwashing. After a presence sensor detects that a person has entered the room, a message may be sent to the platform hub 106. The platform hub 106 may play a prerecorded voice as a reminder and display a video sequence on the outer LED ring. As shown in FIG. 20A, some of the LEDs may rotate clockwise. When a person washes their hands, the handwashing sensor is triggered, and the platform hub 106 may play another prerecorded voice and display another video sequence of light. As shown in FIG. 20B, the left and right halves of the outer ring can be filled simultaneously from bottom to top. The inner ring represents the number of people who have washed their hands compared to the number of people who entered the room. For every person who enters the room and washes their hands, the "tree leaf" (or some other shape formed by the inner ring) "grows," and for every person who enters the room and does not wash their hands, the tree drops its leaves and may shrink in size. The ratio of the signals from the handwashing sensor and the presence sensor can be used to calculate the growth or decline of the tree leaf. FIG. 20C shows a relatively poor result (too few visitors washed their hands), and FIG. 20D shows a relatively good result where the leaf is "growing" appropriately. Such a state sequence may be locally controlled by the platform hub 106 or may be controlled by server software or an operator. In an example, a preset mode can enable the automatic disabling of the audio and / or light sequence when the ambient light level is low, for example, in a hospital room where a patient is sleeping and should not be disturbed.

[0054] In an embodiment, since the platform server 108 can monitor and report from the memories of multiple platform hubs 106, all the acquired data can be accessed via the Internet, cloud, intranet, or some other network type. In the example, the acquired data may include the total number of triggers of the presence sensors and handwashing sensors, and the temperature, humidity, air quality, and ambient light level at regular intervals. The current battery voltage of each sensor can be read and used by the platform server 108 or a remote system, and a warning can be issued when battery replacement is necessary.

[0055] In an embodiment, the multiple types of data acquired by the platform 102 include synchronous data such as the counter state readings of each sensor monitored by the platform hub 106 (including multiple handwashing sensors) and the states of all internal sensors of the platform hub 106 (e.g., temperature, humidity, air quality, ambient light level, etc.), which data can be unconditionally buffered at predetermined intervals, asynchronous data such as records of events triggering the presence sensors or handwashing sensors, and current data such as data written at any time in response to a special request from the server, which data is buffered in the platform hub 106 and can safely wait for a transfer command from the server, but are not limited thereto.

[0056] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 may operate independently of and separately from the platform hub 106 and / or the platform server 108 and communicate directly with the application 105 associated with the platform 102. As shown in FIG. 21, the smart hygiene device 104 may include modules, functions, and data including, but not limited to, a mesh networking module 2102, an application / server interaction module 2104, an upgrade engine 2100, sensor fusion 2106, a learning module 130, behavior data 116, event data 118, ID data 124, audio-visual data 122, and an encouragement, monitoring, and confirmation (EMA) engine. The smart hygiene device 104 may include a plurality of sensors and sensor types including, but not limited to, a BLE-based sensor for detecting a mobile computing device 182 or other BLE-compatible device, a handwashing sensor, a PIR sensor, or some other sensor type. The smart hygiene device 104, the sensors, and other data and analysis processing modules may be associated with the platform 102 and operate in conjunction with the application 105 used to configure the settings of the smart hygiene device 104. The EMA engine may include models, algorithms, or other intelligent analysis that calls on the audio-visual functions of the smart hygiene device, such as prompting the user to wash their hands with a lighting, voice, or video prompt and / or rewarding handwashing by playing media on the smart hygiene device 104, to encourage, monitor, and confirm the hygiene behavior of people near the smart hygiene device. The mesh networking module 2102 of the smart hygiene device 104 enables communication between smart hygiene devices 104, and the application / server interaction module 2104 and the upgrade engine 2100 may enable the maintenance of the software installed on the smart hygiene device 104.In the example, the mesh networking module 2102 may be a type of cooperative computing module, a cluster computing module, or some other type of distributed computing module other than a mesh network, used to network cooperative devices as described herein.

[0057] In an embodiment, the installation of the smart hygiene device 104 of the platform 102 and the associated network may include, but is not limited to, the following steps. The user may download the platform application 105. Using the application, the user may set up an account as shown in FIG. 22A, search for the device 104 as shown in FIG. 22B, define the location and area where the smart hygiene device 104 is deployed, or perform other platform 102 setup operations. For example, the user may configure the first device 104 to detect only people who enter the area using BLE, and the second device may be placed near the sink and configured to detect only handwashing. In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 may be configured for a specific purpose or multiple purposes. For example, the smart hygiene device 104 may be configured to detect only movement. In other examples, the smart hygiene device 104 may be configured to detect only hygiene actions such as handwashing. Also, the smart hygiene device 104 may be configured to detect multiple events such as movement within a room, the presence of a mobile computing facility 182, a hygiene event, or other occurrences or activities. In an embodiment, instead of using a presence sensor to detect the presence of a person, the smart hygiene device 104 may use BLE to detect a mobile computing device 182 that is near a person, such as a smartphone, smartwatch, tablet computer, or other type of mobile computing device 182. Based at least in part on the learning machine module 130, AI processing 134, classification module 126, and platform data 110 within or associated with the smart hygiene device 104, the smart hygiene device 104 may learn and recognize a group of mobile computing devices 182 that are always or frequently detected together, such as a phone and a watch.Using this data and intelligence, in device 104 and / or application 105, it may be confirmed and recorded that the detection of the clock and the phone recorded as a pair is for only one person detected, and that the person with the clock and the person with the phone are not two different people. In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 may use BLE to detect the number of smart hygiene devices 104 present, the distance between the mobile computing device 182 and the smart hygiene device 104, and the type of device (e.g., phone / tablet computer). Also, the smart hygiene device 104 may be configured to detect, record, and process only one type or subset of BLE-compatible devices, e.g., only phones or only beacons. This may be useful in the installation of a particular platform 102. For example, a facility may want to detect and record only the hygiene actions of its employees equipped with beacons and ignore the detection of all mobile computing devices 182 that may double-count employees or associate with non-employees. Also, the application 105 may be used to set a sensing range for each smart hygiene device 104. Also, the application 105 may be used to configure the smart hygiene device 104 to play audio, voice, lighting, video reminders to perform handwashing to a person near the smart hygiene device 104, or to configure the timing of such reminders (e.g., every 30 minutes, only when a mobile computing device is detected, etc.). The platform application 105 may present to the dashboard 176 a list, map, or other presentation of the locations where all deployed smart hygiene devices 104 are installed, including a list of their configurations, purposes, etc. Also, the platform application 105 may present summary statistics related to the smart hygiene device 104 based at least in part on user-defined regions, areas, device clusters, etc., such as a home area as shown in FIG. 22C or an entrance to an area as shown in FIG. 22D.In an embodiment, the configuration, settings, etc. of the smart hygiene device 104 shared among multiple devices may be configured by the user using the application 105 on only a single device 104, and these settings and configurations may be distributed and installed on other devices 104 via a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network without the user having to configure each device 104 individually. In an embodiment, a gateway other than the application 105 may be used to configure the platform 102 and the smart hygiene device 104, including but not limited to WiFi, cellular, or some other gateway type.

[0058] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene devices 104 may communicate with each other via a network including but not limited to a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other distributed network. Each device 104 within the network may share, update, upload, download, or transfer data, models, algorithms, artificial intelligence, machine learning, classifications, recommendations, etc., as described herein, whereby each device 104 within the network is fully updated and synchronized with other devices 104 and the platform 102, as described herein.

[0059] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 may include elements of the platform 102 and may include an analysis engine 112, as described herein. The analysis engine 112 may include a classifier 126, a prediction module 128, a learning machine 130, a recommendation module 132, AI processing 134, an optimization module 136, an automation module 138, a personalization module 140, or some other type of analysis processing module, but is not limited thereto. The analysis engine 112 may incorporate data collected by the smart hygiene device 104 connected to a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network, as described herein, or data obtained by a third-party data source 148 external to the smart hygiene device 104. The analysis engine 112 may construct, test, and validate machine learning algorithms and models, at least in part, based on the incorporated and / or collected data, and use such algorithms and models for the purpose of classifying, predicting, recommending, optimizing, and / or personalizing the performance and use of the smart hygiene device 104. The analysis engine may perform AI processing 134 on the platform data 110 and / or data from the external data source 148. For example, AI processing may be used to optimize the media placed by the smart hygiene device 104 to encourage modification of hygiene behavior among the population working in or visiting the facility.

[0060] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network may be operably connected to at least one facility smart device hub 144 and a facility server 146 associated with one or more facilities in which the smart hygiene device 104 is deployed, as described herein. The facility server 146 may further be associated with wearable devices 174, a personnel identifier 172 such as a user's login or account information, and / or other devices such as an external data source 148.

[0061] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network may be associated with, and operable or controllable by, a platform application 105 and / or additional applications. The additional applications are developed and / or provided using an application programming interface (API) 178 and a software development kit (SDK) 180 to enable developers and a development platform 188 to create applications for interacting with the platform 102, the application 105, and the smart hygiene device 105. The application 105 and the dashboard 176 are associated with the platform 102 and may be used to configure, operate, and / or visualize the performance of the platform. The dashboard 176 may include an interface and a set of services for an operator to configure behavior modification stimulus events and a set of type timing sequences, and to configure a set of trigger events and rewards for behavior modification activities of a set of devices managed by the platform. The dashboard 176 is displayed on a computing device including, but not limited to, a mobile computing device 182 or a web browser 184 and may be used to provide a user experience that promotes user awareness of the need to take hygiene actions. The application 105 may include a set of end-user mobile application interfaces configured for the platform to induce user behavior and to enable an operator of the platform to configure a set of parameters of the platform 102.

[0062] In an embodiment, the platform 102 and the platform application 105 may include multiple outbound data functions including, but not limited to, cooperation with reports 192, the hygiene campaign module 190, social media entities 194 or other third-party platforms 196, and / or general communication platforms such as email 198.

[0063] In the above embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network may operate, in part, using BLE as described herein and may include a presence sensor, a handwashing sensor, a passive infrared proximity sensor, an active infrared proximity sensor 200, or some other type of sensor as described herein. The smart hygiene device 104 within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network may be separated from a container, a pipe, and / or a soap or disinfectant dispenser or may be integrated with a soap or disinfectant dispenser. It may detect a hand hygiene event by detecting a hand in the dispenser area and transmit that information to the platform application 105. An LED may be lit to indicate the detected hand hygiene event. The battery-powered smart hygiene device 104 may be placed on a wall, next to a door, or some other location. A presence sensor within the smart hygiene device 104 or a presence sensor associated therewith may be used to detect a person entering a room. The sensor may be programmed to be able to detect the direction of movement and to detect only a person entering a room and to ignore a person leaving the room. Alternatively, it may be programmed to detect a person entering and leaving a room using BLE detection of a mobile computing device 182 near a person on or near the smart hygiene device 104. This information may also be transmitted to other platforms or the infrastructure of a facility such as a server, a database, etc.

[0064] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 23, the smart hygiene device 104 is disposed within a residence such as a house or apartment and may be interconnected within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network. In an example, multiple smart hygiene devices 104 can be distributed throughout the residence, such as in locations near entrances where handwashing may occur and in bathrooms near sinks. Each device in this example is configured for similar monitoring purposes. When entering this residence, the first smart hygiene device can detect the mobile computing facility 182 of the person entering the room. Data and analytics within the mesh network, cooperative network, cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network of the smart hygiene device 104 can, by the network, as described herein, identify the user based on previous encounters with the user's networked devices 104. Based at least in part on this knowledge of the person within the network, a selection of recommended media such as audio, song, video, or text, for example, media that encourages or reminds the person to perform a hygiene act such as handwashing may be presented. Other smart hygiene devices 104 within the network, such as a device disposed near the sink, may detect, record, and transmit data related to handwashing, such as the presence or absence of handwashing while a person is visiting the bathroom.

[0065] In another example, as shown in FIG. 24, devices 104A and 104B within a mesh network, a collaborative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network may be configured for specific different purposes. For example, device 104B within a common area such as an office conference room may be configured to detect the presence of people in the room based on the detection of the presence of mobile computing device 182, as described herein, and device 104A within a private area such as a toilet may be configured to detect the occurrence of handwashing. Additional devices within the toilet may also be configured to detect the presence of people in the room based on the detection of the presence of mobile computing device 182, whereby individual unique persons may be paired with their respective handwashing opportunities and the occurrence or non-occurrence of their respective handwashings. Summary data and analysis may be shared across platform 102 and provided to platform application 105 that can display the data within dashboard 176.

[0066] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an API system 178 that manages one or more APIs of the platform 102 and exposes the APIs to one or more related applications or third-party systems. The SDK 180 may further be associated with the platform 102 and be used to develop software applications that configure the smart hygiene device 104, facilitate communication with the platform 102, and facilitate communication between the device 104, the network of the platform 102, the hub 106 and the server 108, and facility smart devices 142, hubs 144, servers 146, etc. external to the platform 102. Such software may further be configured to monitor, track, and report on the activities of the smart hygiene device 104 and to constitute a set of services for integration with the platform 102. Monitoring may be used, for example, to oversee the level of use of the smart hygiene device 104 in relation to business-defined goals. An independent array of smart hygiene devices 104, including an array of smart hygiene devices 104 connected within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network, is associated with defined units of the facility and their use that are monitored and compared, for example, as part of a hygiene campaign or initiative. As shown in FIG. 25, the facility 2500 may define areas therein, such as area 1 (2502) and area 2 (2504), each having an array of smart hygiene devices 104. These areas may conform to physical spaces such as rooms like bathrooms, but may also be multi-room domains defined by the function of the facility, such as "kitchen", "warehouse", "office", etc.When employees, customers, and other people visit areas (2502, 2504), the smart hygiene device 104 may communicate with a platform application 105, a mesh network, a coordination network, a cluster computing network, some other type of distributed network, or one or more platform hubs 106 that monitor hygiene opportunities and completed hygiene activities and coordinate with each smart hygiene device array 104 within the facility 2500. The platform application 105, the network of devices 104, and / or the platform hub 106 may communicate with one or more platform servers 108 and input hygiene action information into platform data 110 and / or an external data source 148. As a hygiene campaign progresses, an administrator may use the platform application 105 and a related dashboard 176 to identify actions or environmental changes necessary to improve compliance, such as more handwashing by employees. Parameters for full compliance may be specified within the platform application 105 and may be repeated reports 192 (e.g., daily) within the facility, and alerts may be sent regarding the performance of people in facilities that meet such parameters.

[0067] The platform 102 may be deployed in relation to multiple facilities and may be particularly associated with facilities and industries where personal hygiene is emphasized or required, such as in medical, hospital, education, travel, fitness and / or sports, government, entertainment, personal services, "smart home" or enterprise settings.

[0077] The platform 102 may include a set of services configured to induce health promotion actions within a government environment, including a set of government data integration and information technology services.

[0078] In an embodiment, a user may communicate with the platform 102 using a mobile computing device 182, such as a smartphone, tablet, watch, or some other type of mobile computing device. In an example, such communication can be performed via Bluetooth (R) Low Energy (BLE), Near Field Communication (NFC), or some other communication protocol. The software application 105 associated with the platform 102 may include a dashboard 176 presented to the user on the mobile computing device 182. The application 105 and the dashboard 176 enable the user to monitor and configure the devices 104 within the facility. The dashboard may be used, for example, to present to the user a summary of handwashing or other hygiene events, such as hygiene actions related to defined facility goals, department goals, and / or individual goals. The dashboard may present a mapping function indicating the current location of the deployed devices 104 and usage statistics associated with the devices. "Heat maps" and other visual presentations may be used to graphically show users, such as facility administrators, when hygiene actions are and are not in compliance with defined parameters. This may be presented for an area of the facility, the entire facility, and / or an entire set of facilities.

[0079] In an embodiment, with reference to FIG. 26, the smart hygiene device 104 of the platform 102 may include and may be associated with audio-visual hardware, software, and content. Such audio-visual hardware 2602 may include, but is not limited to, an LED or other lighting, a speaker, and / or a screen such as an OLED screen for presenting media 2610 to the user. When the user 2604 enters the room where the smart hygiene device 104 is located, the movement of the user 2604 may be identified by, for example, using a PIR sensor, a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, some other type of distributed network, or the smart hygiene device 104 connected to the sensor 2606 of the platform 102, as described herein. The platform 102 may detect the user 2604 based at least in part on information associated with the mobile computing device 182. The user 2604 may be identified as a specific individual or simply as an anonymous unique individual. When personally identifiable information (PII) related to a person near the smart hygiene device 104 is detected, the platform may present an informed consent request to the mobile computing device associated with this person to obtain consent for the collection of this person's PII. This information may be used by the analysis engine 112 of the platform 102 to find other platform data 110 or external data sources 148 related to the user 2604, such as previous hygiene events 2608 of the user 2604, such as handwashing events or missed handwashing opportunities. Continuing with the example, when the user 2604 enters the room where the smart hygiene device 104 of the platform 102 is located, the device 104 may present, along with other lights indicating the number of successful handwashing completions, for example, an LED array indicating the number of opportunities the user had to wash their hands.The speaker can also play personalized audio content, such as helpful messages related to how to properly wash hands for a user entering the room and / or personalized messages to encourage compliance, e.g., "Hello. In June, the kitchen department aims for 100% handwashing compliance. Please do your part." The identification of the user may also be performed, at least in part, based on external data sources 148 such as personal identifiers 172 accessible from facility server 146 to platform 102 or data of wearable device 174 and stored by the facility. The smart hygiene device 104 of platform 102 may also present media 2610, such as audio-visual content, e.g., photos, graphics, and / or videos, on a screen. Such a screen may be used to present summary data similar to that described above using LEDs, regarding handwashing or other hygiene events occurring at platform 102. Lighting or sound may also be used by the smart hygiene device 104 of platform 102 to attract the attention of a person near the smart hygiene device 104 and serve as a means to remind the person to wash hands or perform some other type of hygiene behavior. The sound may also be provided in the form of music or song. In one example, the music may be played for the duration that hands need to be washed to be properly disinfected. Lighting may also be used by the smart hygiene device 104 in a similar manner to indicate the appropriate duration of an activity such as handwashing. The platform may include a system that provides an audio-visual experience promoting hygiene behavior, having a system that facilitates progressive reminders as a person traverses the environment and passes one or more reference points. The progressive reminder may continue to play until a desired hygiene event, such as handwashing, is performed.

[0080] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 27, the smart hygiene device 104 is connected to other devices within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network, and may include audio-visual hardware, software, and content within the smart hygiene device 104. Such audio-visual hardware 2602 may include, but is not limited to, an LED or other lighting, a speaker, and / or a screen such as an OLED screen for presenting media 2610 to the user. When entering the room in which the smart hygiene device 104 within the network is located, the mobile computing facility 182 of the user 2604 may be detected by the sensors of the smart hygiene device 104 using BLE as described herein. The device 104 may detect the user 2604 based at least in part on information associated with the mobile computing device 182. This information may be used by the device 104 to find other platform data 110 or external data sources 148 related to the user 2604, such as previous hygiene events 2608 of the user 2604, such as handwashing events or missed handwashing opportunities. When the user 2604 enters the room in which the smart hygiene device 104 within the network is located, the device 104 may present personalized media 2610 to the user. For example, the speaker may play a favorite song for the user entering the room. Identification of the user may also be performed based at least in part on an external data source 148, such as a personal identifier stored by the facility and accessible to the platform 102 from the facility server 146 or data of the wearable device 174.

[0081] In an embodiment, the platform may include a system that provides an audio-visual experience that promotes hygienic behavior, and the audio-visual experience includes an advertisement that is played during a recommended period of a handwashing event.

[0082] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may have a network connection system for connecting network entities to the platform. This may include a gateway system and a peer-to-peer configuration system that enable peer-to-peer communication between sets of health promotion devices and provide a network connection between a set of health promotion devices and another system.

[0083] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may have a cloud platform for receiving data and other inputs collected within one or more environments and transmitted to the cloud platform via one or more networks. A set of services may be deployed on the cloud platform to receive data and other inputs collected within one or more environments and transmitted to the cloud platform via one or more networks. The platform 102 may include a set of services and interfaces that can be configured to encourage health promotion actions in a user environment where the services are configured in a microservices architecture.

[0084] In an embodiment, referring to FIG. 28, platform 102 may have an analysis engine 112 for performing analysis related to hygiene behavior. Platform 102 may have platform data 110 and a data collection system 2800 for collecting hygiene behavior data. The data collection system 2800 may be used to collect hygiene behavior data 2806 across a set of devices 104, a set of locations or facilities 2802, and / or a population of individuals 2804. In an example, the analysis engine 112 may include a community score system that generates a community score 2808 based on handwashing behavior compliance in an environment, may perform a scoring operation, and the community score system may calculate the community score 2808 based on, for example, the percentage of people entering an environment where hands are washed. The community score 2808 may be presented to a user, for example, within a dashboard 176 associated with platform 102. In another example, the analysis engine 112 may provide a community score system that generates a community score 2808 based on handwashing behavior compliance in an environment, and the community score 2808 may be calculated based on the percentage of people entering an environment where hands are washed and the percentage of people washing their hands during a recommended period. Platform 102 may include a community score system for generating community scores 2808 for an enterprise across multiple locations based on handwashing behavior in one or more environments of the multiple locations, and the community score 2808 may be calculated based on the percentage of people entering an environment where hands are washed. In another example, the analysis engine 112 of the platform may also provide an evaluation system for evaluating an environment according to hygiene behavior compliance, such as a community score of the environment.

[0085] In an embodiment, platform 102 may include a system for creating a personal profile with a personal data structure that stores personal information.

[0086] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to a specific individual.

[0087] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to a population of individuals.

[0088] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to the location of a business.

[0089] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to a brand across multiple locations.

[0090] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to the effectiveness of a hygiene incentive measure.

[0091] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include an analysis system that performs an analysis operation to generate an analysis scale related to hygiene behavior and has an analysis indicating a hygiene performance level related to the effectiveness of the placement of a hygiene incentive device.

[0092] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may use BLE proximity sensing, passive infrared sensors, and / or active infrared sensors to detect the presence of one or more people. Such sensing may be performed, for example, by one or more smart hygiene devices 104 attached to a container, pipe, and / or soap dispenser. In an alternative embodiment, such sensing may be performed by one or more smart hygiene devices 104 embedded within a container, pipe, and / or soap dispenser. The smart hygiene device 104 may be provided in a plurality of form factors including, but not limited to, shapes such as a disk, puck, sphere, cube or rectangular box, or an asymmetric form. Non-limiting examples of the form factors of the smart hygiene device are shown in FIGS. 29-37. The form factor may include a BLE chipset, a plurality of PCBs, sensors, and other electronics that enable communication between devices. BLE may also be used by the platform 102 to detect a cohort. For example, within a hospital environment, doctors and nurses may wear BLE beacons, and the platform 102 may use the beacons to detect which cohort is near a smart hygiene device 104. Similar detection may be performed in other facility spaces such as conference rooms, schools where people carry phones, and / or homes. For example, the platform 102 may detect a cohort from the signature of a handset and obtain a representation of how many people are in a room. Then, the platform 102 may use this basic count to compare the number of people present in a room or space to the number of handwashes performed.

[0093] In an embodiment, passive IR may be blended with active IR. Passive IR can detect warm bodies very well, but may lack accuracy and may not be able to distinguish between two people and what appears to be one large warm area where two people are actually gathered. Platform 102 may use passive IR along with active IR that sends an IR light source and reads the reflected light. This can improve the accuracy of short-distance detection for handwashing. By combining BLE with passive IR and active IR, platform 102 may determine the "dynamics" of the entire room with respect to the number of people present during a period and the number of events such as handwashing. This improvement in accuracy is shown to improve the accuracy of the platform's analysis and reporting 192.

[0113] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include a machine learning and / or artificial intelligence system configured to generate situation-dependent predictions of hygiene behavior.

[0114] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include a machine learning and / or artificial intelligence system configured to automate the control of the hygiene behavior modification experience.

[0115] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include a machine learning and / or artificial intelligence system configured to generate recommendations related to handwashing and / or hand disinfection.

[0116] In an exemplary embodiment of the deployment of the in-hospital platform 102, the smart hygiene devices 104 may be arranged and associated with a particular unit, department, or area of the hospital, and each smart hygiene device 104 may communicate within a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network or communicate with at least one platform hub 106 and a platform server 108. For example, each care unit of the hospital (e.g., intensive care unit, pediatrics, outpatient operating room, administrative office, etc.) may have a dedicated set of devices for the care unit administrator to monitor the hygiene habits of the people within the care unit. Using machine learning and artificial intelligence tools, based at least in part on the platform data 110 related to similar functions and modeling performed on the platform data 110 within the analysis engine, the platform 102 can make recommendations related to the number of smart hygiene devices, the physical location of their placement within the care unit, or some other type of characteristic in order to optimize and promote hygiene actions. The smart hygiene devices 104 may be placed within the care unit as devices independent of containers, pipes, and / or dispensers such as soap, disinfectant, wipes, towels or other hygiene products, or may be embedded within containers, pipes, and / or dispensers. The administrator who supervises the hygiene promotion initiative using the platform 102 may log in to the platform using a mobile computing device 182, a web browser 184, or some other device for accessing the dashboard 176. The administrator may also utilize the application 105 used by the hospital or other entity to customize the utilization of the platform 102 using the development platform 188, the SDK 180, the API 178, etc. The administrator may access the analysis engine 112 and the platform data 110 within the dashboard to identify the parameters and goals of the hygiene promotion initiative. This can be represented as a target number of the total number of people washing their hands during a shift, a target percentage of handwashing relative to the total number of handwashing opportunities, or some other target metric that the administrator is interested in.Using these metrics, the administrator may also identify, using dashboard 176, the nature and timing of alerts, and other communications that platform 102 conveys based on the hygiene performance of the care unit. For example, the administrator may specify a goal of 90% of all handwashing opportunities for the completion of handwashing. Also, since it is necessary for platform 102 to send an alert, a completion rate of 79% or less may be specified. The hygiene campaign module 190 communicates with platform 102 to receive this data as it becomes available and, for example, by updating the presentation on a website, all persons working in a given facility or care unit may check how they are performing and / or how all persons in the care unit are performing against defined hygiene goals. Other alerts may be sent via email 198, third-party platform 196, or other reporting 192 means.

[0117] Continuing with the example, when an employee of the care unit comes near the smart hygiene device 104, the device can detect his presence based on passive IR, active IR, or a monitoring sensor as described herein, and can provide this person with audio, visual, or audiovisual cues such as light, voice, song, recorded message, or video as described herein. This can help remind the person of the presence of dispensers such as containers, pipes, and / or soap dispensers, and the need to wash hands. The facility may store personnel identifiers 172 such as employee badges, passes, or other identification information that may be used or required to enter a secure area. This may be used to identify the person and personalize the audiovisual content presented by the smart hygiene device 104. For example, the device may inform the person of how much time has elapsed since they last washed their hands, or provide information relevant to the user based on the person's location, shift, patient care, or some other factor associated with the personnel identifier. Alternatively, a mobile computing device 182 such as a person's wearable device 174 or smartphone may identify the person. This may be used simply to identify an anonymous "unique individual" without providing personal identification information to the platform 102. As described herein, when PII related to a person near the smart hygiene device 104 is detected, the platform can present an informed consent request to the mobile computing device associated with this person to obtain consent for the collection of this person's PII.

[0118] In this example, when a person approaches the smart hygiene device 104, the handwashing sensor may detect a hand or other component associated with a person near the container, pipe, and / or dispenser, as described herein. In other examples, upon detecting a hand or other component associated with a person near the container, pipe, and / or dispenser, the platform 102 may initiate the dispensing of soap, disinfectant, hygiene wipes, or some other hygiene product. The smart hygiene device 104 may be separate from, or embedded within, the container, pipe, and dispenser. The dispenser associated with the platform 102 may have multiple internal compartments for containing different types of disinfectants. The platform 102 may use the platform data 110, external data source 148, and / or personnel identifier 172 to select which material to dispense based on data regarding an individual, the individual's occupation or role, the care unit or area of the care unit where the container, pipe, and / or dispenser is located, or some other data.

[0119] Continuing with the example, when handwashing is taking place, the smart hygiene device 104 may display light, voice, play something, and / or display audio-visual content and media to the user. This may be a display of the period during which proper handwashing should occur. Alternatively, it may be instructional material such as a video that notifies the user of proper techniques, or material that updates the user on the performance of care units related to the hygiene campaign goals stored by the platform 102. The duration of handwashing can be recorded, and the platform can use this and other data collected as markers of the quality of each handwashing that can be shared with hygiene administrators. If the quality and performance of an individual, group, or care unit falls below the goals stored by the platform, an alert may be distributed to the primary responsible party. The alert may be provided by text, email, incoming call, posting to a website, or some other means. Alerts, data summaries, and other materials and reports 192 from the platform 102 may also be shared, for example, with third-party platforms 196 and social media entities 194. For example, an evaluation website may receive data for public posting that summarizes that all care units of a facility are fully compliant with industry hygiene standards. This can serve as effective marketing and give the facility reporting such data a competitive advantage in the market.

[0120] The platform records and stores information such as the number and duration of handwashing events, the type of soap or disinfectant dispensed, and the duration of each dispense. This information is stored as platform data 110 and may be provided to an analysis engine for the purpose of tracking the usage of disinfectant products. This data can be shared with administrators to track the inventory of disinfectant 158 and automate the scheduling of ordering disinfectant from suppliers based on the real-time usage data provided by the platform 102. Administrators can use this data to identify areas of the facility where ratios such as appropriate handwashing duration and amount of soap are unacceptably low. This can help administrators allocate resources such as training to focus on these areas of the facility where there are employees not fully complying with the hygiene policy.

[0137] In an embodiment, the platform 102 may include a system for integrating with a social media system.

[0138] In an embodiment, platform 102 may include a system for integrating with a location / business check-in system.

[0139] In an embodiment, the smart sanitation device 104 may be disposed within a vehicle including, but not limited to, an automobile, van, bus, train, airplane, or other means of transportation, such that its field of view covers, for example, the interior space occupied by passengers. The smart sanitation device 104 may be disposed adjacent to or within the entrance of the vehicle, behind a seat, or on, in, or at other locations associated with the vehicle (including areas external to the vehicle such as taxi stands, bus stops, and other areas). The smart sanitation device 104 may be battery-powered (or wired if disposed at a wall, adjacent to a door, or at some other location external to the vehicle). A presence sensor within the smart sanitation device 104 or a presence sensor associated therewith may be used to detect when a person enters the vehicle. The sensor may be able to detect the direction of movement and may be programmed to detect only when a person boards the vehicle and to ignore when a person exits the vehicle. Alternatively, it may be programmed to detect when a person boards and exits the vehicle using, for example, BLE detection of a mobile computing device 182 near or on the smart sanitation device 104. This information may also be transmitted to other platforms or infrastructure of facilities such as a server, database, etc. (including the infrastructure of entities associated with the vehicle such as ride-sharing services, taxi services, public transportation services, airlines, or some other transportation-related service).

[0140] In an example, the smart hygiene device 104 may display the current state of the unit, as described herein, using, for example, an LED, or other lighting or media. After a person sensor detects that a person has entered the vehicle, a message may be sent to the platform 106. The platform 106 may play a prerecorded voice as a reminder and display a video sequence on an LED or other media. When a person washes their hands by dispensing hand sanitizer, the handwashing sensor is triggered and the platform 106 may play another prerecorded voice, video, or some other media item, for example, display another video sequence. For all persons who enter the vehicle and wash their hands, the smart hygiene device 104 may record, for example, an indicator of whether the occupant in front of the vehicle has washed their hands, and / or present a cumulative measure of handwashing that occurred within the vehicle over a defined period. In one embodiment, for all persons who enter the vehicle and do not wash their hands, the smart hygiene device 104 may present or send an alert to the vehicle user or the next user of the vehicle, the vehicle operator, the vehicle owner, or some other party. The ratio of signals from the smart hygiene device 104 may be used to calculate a hygiene assessment of the vehicle. This hygiene assessment may communicate directly with an application 105 associated with the platform 102, and / or an application including, but not limited to, a rideshare company application, a taxi service application, a public transportation service application, or some other transportation-related service application. Such a hygiene state sequence may be locally controlled by the platform 102, or may be controlled by server software or an operator. In an example, a preset mode may enable the automatic disabling of voice and / or light sequences when ambient light levels are low, such as in an ambulance where a patient should not be disturbed, a night flight, etc.

[0141] In an embodiment, the platform server 108 can monitor and report from multiple devices to the memory, so that all the acquired vehicle-based data can be accessed via the Internet, cloud, intranet or some other network type. In the example, the acquired data may include the total number of triggers of the occupancy sensor and the handwashing sensor, and the temperature, humidity, air quality and ambient light level at regular intervals. The current battery voltage of each device can be read and used by the platform server or the remote system to issue a warning if battery replacement is necessary.

[0142] In an embodiment, the smart hygiene device 104 operates independently separately from the platform hub 106 and / or the platform server 108, and may communicate directly with an application 105 including, but not limited to, a ride-sharing company application, a taxi service application, a public transportation service application, or some other transportation-related service application associated with the platform 102.

[0143] In an embodiment, a vehicle user may communicate with the platform 102 using a mobile computing device 182, such as a smartphone, tablet, watch, or some other type of mobile computing device. In an example, such communication can be performed via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Near Field Communication (NFC), or some other communication protocol. The software application 105 associated with the platform 102 may include a dashboard 176 presented to the vehicle user on the mobile computing device 182. The application 105 and the dashboard 176 enable the user to monitor the devices 104 within the vehicle. The dashboard may be used, for example, to present a summary of handwashing or other hygiene events to the vehicle user, such as hygiene actions related to defined goals or minimum requirements (e.g., specified by the vehicle user), departmental goals, and / or other goals. The dashboard may present a mapping function indicating the current location of a deployed vehicle, such as a taxi or rideshare vehicle, and an assessment of the use and hygiene associated with the vehicle. The visual presentation may be used to graphically show a vehicle's hygiene assessment as compliant or non-compliant with requirements defined by the user to a user, such as a person seeking to hire a rideshare vehicle. This may be presented for an area near the user and / or an area preselected by the user. For example, a user of an airplane scheduled to take a rideshare upon arrival at an airport in the future can select from rideshare company vehicle options based at least in part on the hygiene assessment.

[0144] In an embodiment, the smart sanitation device 104 is connected to a mesh network, a cooperative network, a cluster computing network, or some other type of distributed network, and / or other devices within a smart or IoT network (including, but not limited to, toilets, refrigerators, faucets, trash cans, or some other smart device), and may include audio-visual hardware, software, and content within the smart sanitation device 104. Such audio-visual hardware 2602 may include, but is not limited to, LED or other lighting, speakers, and / or a screen such as an OLED screen for presenting media 2610 to the user. The smart sanitation device 104 can initiate an operation based at least in part on the occurrence of an event in another smart device within the network. For example, during toilet flushing, trash can opening, refrigerator opening, faucet use, or the activity of some other smart device, an audio and / or visual reminder to wash hands may be presented to one or more smart sanitation devices 104. The device 104 may detect the user 2604 based at least in part on information detected by other smart devices. This information can be used by the smart sanitation device 104 and / or platform 102 to find other platform data 110 related to the user 2604 or an external data source 148, such as previous sanitation events 2608 of the user 2604, such as handwashing events or missed handwashing opportunities. When the user 2604 enters a smart device such as a trash can in which a smart sanitation device 104 within the network is placed, the device 104 may present personalized media 2610 to the user based at least in part on previous sanitation events 2608 and the use of the smart device. For example, if the user used the trash can twice but did not wash their hands, rules may be invoked that require the smart sanitation device 104 to present a handwashing reminder.User identification may also be performed, at least in part, based on external data sources 148, such as personal identifiers stored by the facility and accessible from facility server 146 to platform 102 or data from wearable device 174, and stored by the facility.

[0145] In an embodiment, the analysis engine 112 of the platform 102 may perform analyses such as machine learning, algorithm modeling, etc. related to scoring, evaluating, and / or modeling of hygiene actions occurring at a location, in an area, within a facility, or in some other area. The platform 102 may have the platform data 110 and a data collection system 2800 for collecting hygiene action data of facilities of entities such as, for example, the locations of retail stores. The data collection system 2800 may be used to collect hygiene action data 2806 across a set of devices 104, a set of locations or facilities 2802, and / or a population of individuals 2804. In an example, the analysis engine 112 may perform a scoring operation including an evaluation system that generates an evaluation based on handwashing action compliance in the environment and calculates the evaluation, for example, based on the proportion of people entering an environment where hands are washed such as a retail store. The evaluation may be presented to the customers of the store, for example, within a dashboard 176 associated with the platform 102. In another example, an evaluation system may be provided by the analysis engine 112 to generate an evaluation based on handwashing action compliance in the environment, and the evaluation may be calculated based on the proportion of people entering the environment where hands are washed and the proportion of people washing their hands during a recommended period. The platform 102 may include an evaluation system for generating an evaluation of an enterprise across a plurality of locations, for example, all retail stores of a company in a specific area, based on handwashing actions in one or more environments of the plurality of locations, and the evaluation is calculated based on the proportion of people entering the environment where hands are washed. In another example, the analysis engine 112 of the platform may also provide an evaluation system for evaluating an environment in accordance with hygiene action compliance such as a goal, a public health standard, or other criteria. The evaluation system may notify the entity's advertisement, social media, or other public outreach as a type of hygiene and / or marketing campaign. Such communication is updated on a rolling basis by the platform 102 and is automatically updated, for example, on a social media website or some other type of website or other presentation, so that the public can see how a location, facility, or entity is performing.Alerts may be sent in real time via e-mail 198, third-party platform 196, or other reporting 192 means.
