Shoe Sanitation System

The shoe sanitation system is designed to be an easy project both sturcturally and coding-wise. The shoe sanitation system allows for the bottom of the shoes to be sanitized without having to touch them. The shoe sanitizer allows for an automated experience for ensuring shoes are properly sanitized before bringing them completely into your home.

Supplies

• MOSFET Switch
• Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
• Potentiometers
• Liquid Display Crystal
• Peristaltic Pump
• Male-to-Male Wires
• Female-to-Female Wires
• 2 500ml science wash bottle

Step 1: Board Setup

The board includes liquid display crystal, ultrasonic sensor, mosfet switch, and a potentiometer. All pins for the following sensors and switches are defined in the code. The negative end peristaltic pump was connected to the middle pin of the mosfet switch and the positive connected to the positive ground on the breadboard.

Step 2: Code

Step 3: Box Setup

The box is composed of one 14x18 bottom, 5 14x6 boards that make up the sides of the box and one of them making up the seperator between the platform and housing. The housing includes a 6x6 piece that seperates the bottles from the wiring, to ensure no water effects the circuit. Ideal if this was 3D printed and used a self-locking system.

Step 4: Things to Possibly Change

• As seen in the picture it would be best to use a channel that hold the tubing on the platform in place so it doesnt rotate and the holes in the tubing continue facing up.
• Try using only the tubes with the pump as using a bigger tube can decrease pressure, if you would like to use bigger tubes, try finding a more powerful pump.
