ABSTRACT

Alcohol had become a must-have after the breakout of COVID-19. The way

people use it came in various ways since then, from storing them in mini bottles, mini

spray bottles, mini spray bottles that can serve as a keychain as well, to using automatic

alcohol dispenser specially for public use. How wonderful can it be when a locker that

can help people have safe place to store their things will be infused with an automatic

dispenser?

To determine the capability of ALCOLOCKER in storing things and dispensing

alcohol, one sample was prepared to determine its effectiveness. The researchers gathered

facts through personal observation since there was a limited time in doing the experiment.

ALCOLOCKER was created first by creating the system that will enable the proximity

sensor to automatically dispense the alcohol, followed by the creation of the body, which

is the locker itself.

Upon undergoing the experiment, the sample showed positive results. Its

automatic alcohol dispenser can effectively function in a locker in terms of its proximity

sensing ability, it is also consistent with how it sprays alcohol, and is very quick in

dispensing alcohol. Its ability to sense the users’ hands to be able to dispense alcohol is

also observed to be great. Given the features of this product, this product is still cost-

efficient as it provides quality performance as a tool, yet still maintaining a reasonable

cost.

Chapter I INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study/Rationale

After two years of distance learning brought by the COVID-19 pandemic in the

Philippines, schools are once again getting back to the face-to-face mode of learning.

This proved that the country is recovering well from the pandemic. Since more and more

people are going out nowadays because of the face-to-face classes, people must be more

cautious of the virus since it is still currently around everyone.

As the new school year have started, students concern about the loads they have

to carry back and forth from their school to their home is again arising. For this reason,

students who have lockers on their school benefits a lot in having less things to carry.

But, since not every school provide lockers for students, a lot of students still struggle

from carrying a lot of things. That’s why a cost-efficient locker would be a great help to

schools specially the students.

According to an essay from ipl.org, the main purpose of a locker is to stay

organized and reduce the weight of student backpacks. You can put coats and heavy

textbooks in your locker and get them out at the end of the day. Some people rely on

lockers to stay organized and to lighten backpacks.

Alcohol had become a must-have after the breakout of COVID-19. The way

people use it came in various ways since then, from storing them in mini bottles, mini

spray bottles, mini spray bottles that can serve as a keychain as well, to using automatic

alcohol dispenser specially for public use. How wonderful can it be when a locker that

can help people have safe place to store their things will be infused with an automatic

dispenser?

Pru Life UK (2020) proved that rubbing alcohol sold commercially for household

use is usually 60 to 70 percent solutions of either ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Like soap,

alcohol can rip apart the protective envelope of coronaviruses. Alcohol also has an

additional mechanism that helps destroy bacteria and other microbes: it can dissolve or

“denature” protein structures inside them. Destroying these protein structures also leads

to the destruction of the microbe. Just like soap, rub the alcohol for 20 seconds to allow

the chemical reaction to work. The advantage of using rubbing alcohol on our hands and

other surfaces is that it can be used as is--unlike soap which needs water to activate its

germ-killing power.

Phuong D. (2020) explained that an automatic hand sanitizer dispenser is a device

dispensing a controlled amount of hand sanitizer (or a similar liquid such as soap

solution). They are often used in conjunction with automatic faucets in public restrooms.

They help conserve the amount of sanitizer used and stem infectious disease

transmission.

Benmahdjoub, M. A., Mezouar, A., & Van den Bossche, A. (2022), in their

research conducted, explained that with relate to their product Non-Contact Automatic

Alcohol Gel Dispenser by using Embedded Real-Time Systems, indeed, spreading by

contact could lead to a new outbreak of the epidemic and a return of coronavirus. Two

applied means to avoid the spread of COVID-19 are wearing masks and using an alcohol

gel dispenser. In this paper, a non-contact automatic alcohol gel dispensed (AAGD) is

proposed. The product made on their study was a device based on microcontroller device

“Arduino Nano”, Ultrasonic sensor “HC-SR05” and servo-motor of 1 Nm. It can be used

and integrated in the schools, markets, and different companies. In this focus, the AAGD

works without touching by hand that could have touched the nose and not cleaned 100%.

This property is important in this crisis period, especially since the appearance of

coronavirus delta variant. This real-time device is nice to operate, and could be produced

using quite common control devices, a too high or complicated technology level would

reduce its application.

Hand sanitizer, also known as a hand antiseptic or hand rub, is a product that is

applied to the hands to remove common pathogen in the hands [1]. Hand sanitizers are

usually available as foam, gel, or liquid [2,3,4]. They are recommended for use when

there is unavailability of water and soap or there are other medical concerns (e.g., it

causes cracks on the skin) [5, 6]. In early 2020, WHO declared a pandemic “severe acute

respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2”, better known as COVID-19. Exponential rise has

been seen in the cases despite authorities setting down their best efforts. Prophylaxis is

the easiest method to reduce transmission, proper hand washing and hygiene are the most

effective pandemic strategies [7]. Hand sanitizers have emerged to be alternative to soap

and water washing both in healthcare and public institutions. They are used to break the

chain of infections, making them one of the important protocols for reducing the burden

on healthcare (Prajapati, P., Desai, H., & Chandarana, C., 2022).

contaminating people’s belongings will be less of a worry. This feature will provide the

users a way to lessen their fear from the virus that has been a threat to everyone’s life.

Locker, as the innovated product in this research, this won’t only help students for merely

their safety, it can also lessen the burden of students in carrying a lot of stuffs they use for

their classes which they have to bring from home to school and vice versa. By using this

product they can store their things/belongings such as notebooks, books, paper works,

project outputs, clothes and even food. If they happen to use this product before entering

school or before or after doing activities that may make students have to sanitize, they

can sanitize their hands as well. If students happen to forget bringing their

alcohols/sanitizers this product can be used as an alternative source for their sanitation

needs.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

Alcohol Dispenser are designed to specifically pour a pre-configured amount in a glass,

no more, no less. There can be certain advantages: Consistency of drinks. Controls over

quantity poured. Less bartender training required.

Automatic- working by itself with little or no direct human control. The word automatic

can be used to describe a machine that works on its own, performing its tasks with little

or no human intervention, such as an automatic transmission on a car.

Automatic Sanitizer Dispenser is an infrared motion sensor-based dispenser. It used to

dispense any alcohol-based sanitizer. It has a touch-less operation, which makes people

fearless and more confident about the sanitization process. It is also known as a touch-

less or contact-less sanitizer dispenser.

Ejecting- force or throw (something) out, typically in a violent or sudden way. 1a: to

throw out especially by physical force, authority, or influence ejected the player from the

game. b: to evict from property. 2: to throw out or off from within ejects the empty

cartridges.

Hand Sanitizer also called hand antiseptic, hand rub, or hand rub, agent applied to the

hands for the purpose of removing common pathogens (disease-causing organisms). 1,2.

Hand sanitizers typically come in foam, gel, or liquid form.

Locker is a small, usually narrow storage compartment. They are commonly found in

dedicated cabinets, very often in large numbers, in various public places such as locker

rooms, workplaces, elementary schools, middle and high schools, transport hubs and the

like.

Privacy is the ability of an individual or group to seclude themselves or information

about themselves, and thereby express themselves selectively.

Product User is the true customer of consumer of a goods or services. Sometimes they

are called end user because the come into picture at the end of the product supply chain

and differentiate the actual user from people involved in other stages of product

development like manufacturers, distributors, buyers etc.

Proximity Sensor- includes all sensors that perform non-contact detection in comparison

to sensors, such as limit switches, that detect objects by physically contacting them.

Proximity Sensors convert information on the movement or presence of an object into an

electrical signal.

Chapter II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

Foreign

Jadhav, S. explicated that sanitizing hands is a simple act that pays in dividends

when it comes to keeping ourselves healthy and safe. Hand sanitizing is also one of the

key cornerstones of COVID- 19 prevention. Using a squeezing type sanitizer container

spout in public places (hospitals, schools, shopping centers, industry plants and

workplaces) is unsafe as it was touched by many hands. Therefore, there is a need of

automate the squeezing operation which guarantee a legitimate cleanliness and safe to use

as touch less operation. Proposed unit is based on pre-programmed electronics and an

inbuilt ultrasonic sensor. It detects hands when it comes in its programmed range and

machine start pouring set amount of liquid into hand. Additionally, there is preset delay is

provided to serviceable and efficient use.

Furthermore, according to Alpers, S. E., people had hazardous drinking behavior

and one-tenth reported increased alcohol consumption during the pandemic lockdown

period. Increased alcohol consumption was particularly common in the age group of 30–

39 years, among people with economic worries due to COVID-19, and among those Int.

J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2021, 18, 1220 9 of 11 who were placed in quarantine or

working or studying from home. This could be important information for policymakers to

keep in mind when revising measures to tackle pandemics.

Moreover, Benmahdjoub, M. A. explained that AAGD (Automatic Alcohol Gel

Dispenser) is based on microcontroller device that detects the right distance measurement

between the hand and alcohol dispenser. In addition, it will control the mechanism of

push-pull button of dispenser, by managing the angle rotation of servomotor. This

Porfirio G. Comia Memorial National High School 15


Alcolocker: Prioritizing Privacy and Safety

SIP

mechanism can be changed depending on the design proposed by the manufacture

company. On the other hand, the program can be extended, to obtain a smarter device.

This device has the possibility to be integrated it in the companies and markets, to reduce

the spread of coronavirus between the people, and spreading psychological confidence

inside the society. For sure, some mockup will help the social acceptance, but a technical

base is still needed.

Prajapati, P. et al. explained that nine out of 10 small case-control studies showed

that hand washing reduced the risk of social contamination. Vitro studies have

established that alcohol-based disinfectants can be effectual in reducing viral load. The

SARS-CoV-2 transmission has an incubation time of 10 days, which makes it easy to

propagate through drops, contaminated hands or surfaces. Therefore, the effect of viral

inactivity on all broadcasts should be considered. Alcoholic disinfectants have been able

to deactivate SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV (also pre-activated coronaviruses) on living

surfaces like plastic, glass, and metal.

Moreover, Chauhan, S. described using an automatic hand sanitizer as one of the

easiest ways to keep your hands clean. It is a very efficient product. Since it is operated

through a sensor, every time it detects a movement such as showing of hands underneath

it, it automatically dispenses a standard amount of IPA alcohol-based hand sanitizer

liquid. This type of contactless functioning eliminates the need for human contact

completely. This helps in maintaining a hygienic and safe environment.

Furthermore, he added security of school lockers is not only beneficial to

students, either, as the presence of a personal locker gives parents peace of mind that

their children’s costly belongings are secure throughout the day. Giving students a safe

Porfirio G. Comia Memorial National High School 16

SIP

space to store their things when they are not needed will help lighten the load and

alleviate some of these health concerns. Being free from any niggling aches and pains

will also help students focus their attention on their studies. A locker plays an essential

role in guaranteeing privacy by creating a place in schools where students can house their

personal belongings. Though security is undoubtedly the greatest benefit that comes with

installing lockers for schools, the advantages and lessons learned to extend far beyond

matters of security (Nuesmart. 2020).

Local

The lack of a vaccine for the Covid-19 pandemic has Filipinos turning to

disinfectants as an additional line of defense against the virus. Isopropyl alcohol is one of

them and has long been required in every home and workplace. The majority of alcohol-

based hand antiseptics contain ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, or a combination of two

of these substances, according to the World Health Organization (Nepomuceno, 2020).

Automated Robot Alcohol Dispensers can automatically pour rubbing alcohol. It

can be released for use by the public. The dispensers, made with LEGO Education EV3

and sensors to give the exact amount of alcohol for the public. Therefore, no wastage and

provides protection for the people. People can reduce their chances of being infected or

spreading COVID-19 by thoroughly cleaning hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or

washing them with soap and water and practicing physical distancing (Cabico, 2020).

Lockers provide security for students’ belongings, store them somewhere tidy,

and avoid having to deal with everything at once. Lockers can aid in deterring theft of

personal property. They will be able to have a tidy location to store their books as a

result. Locker is crucial because carrying all of a student's belongings around can lead to

health issues (Sun.Star Baguio, 2016).

Chapter V SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, RECOMMENDATIONS

Summary

This study observed the capability of ALCOLOCKER as an as a locker based on

the experiment. It was found that based on the experiment, a system that can help people

in sanitizing can be infused in a locker with the help of a proximity sensor. Alcohol is

easier to access since it can be automatically dispensed by the help of the said system.

Therefore, ALCOLOCKER can serve its purpose well.

There should be preciseness when creating the locker as handling the circuit

involved in the creation is technical and should be given full attention in the process of

creating it.

Conclusions

Alcolocker is therefore a product that has an automatic alcohol dispenser which

could effectively function in a locker in terms of its proximity sensing abiliy, it is also

consistent with how it sprays alcohol, and is very quick in dispensing alcohol.

Its ability to sense the users’ hands to be able to dispense alcohol is also observed

to be great.
