In another illustrative embodiment, the container (106) can include one or more nozzles fluidically coupled to the container (106), where the one or more nozzles can include one or more holes, where the one or more holes enables dispensing of the one or more fluids from the container (106) to the one or more hands of the entity. In yet another illustrative embodiment, the display (110) can include any or a combination of Light emitting diode (LED), Liquid crystal display (LCD), Organic light emitting diode (OLED), and the likes.
[0064] In an illustrative embodiment, the door handle (100) can facilitate disinfecting and alerting the entity and prevents the entity from transmission of contagious diseases. The door handle (100) can eliminate need of human intervention for door (304) monitoring and sanitizing the entity entering and leaving the door (304). In another illustrative embodiment, the door handle (100) can include a power source operatively coupled to the controller (108), the first set of sensors (102) and the second set of sensors (104), where the power source facilitates proving electric power to the controller (108), the first set of sensors (102), and the second set of sensors (104).
[0065] As used herein, and unless the context dictates otherwise, the term "coupled to" is intended to include both direct coupling (in which two elements that are coupled to each other contact each other) and indirect coupling (in which at least one additional element is located between the two elements). Therefore, the terms "coupled to" and "coupled with" are used synonymously. Within the context of this document terms "coupled to" and "coupled with" are also used euphemistically to mean “communicatively coupled with” over a network, where two or more devices are able to exchange data with each other over the network, possibly via one or more intermediary device.
[0066] It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that many more modifications besides those already described are possible without departing from the inventive concepts herein. The inventive subject matter, therefore, is not to be restricted except in the spirit of the appended claims. Moreover, in interpreting both the specification and the claims, all terms should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms “comprises” and “comprising” should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non-exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps may be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, ` components, or steps that are not expressly referenced.
[0067] While the foregoing describes various embodiments of the invention, other and further embodiments of the invention may be devised without departing from the basic scope thereof. The scope of the invention is determined by the claims that follow. The invention is not limited to the described embodiments, versions or examples, which are included to enable a person having ordinary skill in the art to make and use the invention when combined with information and knowledge available to the person having ordinary skill in the art.
