Dean Professor Ir Dr Mohd Fadzil Ain said the group decided to build the sanitizing tunnel prototype after they received a request for such equipment from the university’s medical centre.
“Since our faculty is equipped with electronic expertise, we have successfully built a prototype, even with lack of resources and materials. Even so, this tunnel is complete with an IoT-based temperature scanner, soap dispenser, water tap sink and no-contact dryer. “This smart-operated tunnel is also suitable to decontaminate patients coming for their treatments at clinics and hospitals. It could help the frontliners save their time and energy especially when dealing with a large number of people.
“With only RM1,500, it can be built on a larger production scale in a short time, as we can purchase most materials from any local hardware store,” he said.
