About this project

Arduino Covid Disinfection Box

Objective: Design and build an Arduino-powered UV-C disinfection box for safe sterilization of everyday objects.

Context: The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the urgent need for effective, accessible disinfection solutions, especially in India where high-touch surfaces and objects are common in homes and public spaces.

What you'll build: You will assemble a UV-C sterilizer using Arduino UNO/Nano, integrating relay modules to control UV lamps, and programming timer systems for precise operation. Safety interlocks and LCD display will be included to ensure user protection and usability, all housed in a UV-shielded enclosure box.

Deliverables: Working prototype of the disinfection box, Arduino code, safety documentation, and a test report with results from common objects.

Milestones

1. UV sterilizer setup

5 marks 5d

Assemble the UV sterilizer hardware inside the disinfection box, securely mounting the UV-C lamp and ensuring proper electrical connections. Submit clear photos of the installed lamp, a wiring diagram, and a brief explanation of your setup. The milestone is complete when the lamp can be safely powered on and off manually.

2. Timer programming

5 marks 5d

Program the Arduino to control the UV lamp with a user-settable timer, allowing selection of disinfection durations. Submit your Arduino code and a short video demonstrating timer setup and automatic lamp shutoff. The milestone is complete when the lamp operates only for the selected time interval.

3. Safety interlocks implementation

5 marks 5d

Integrate safety interlocks so the UV lamp cannot operate if the box door is open. Submit your updated circuit diagram, Arduino code, and a video showing the lamp turning off immediately when the door opens. The milestone is complete when the system reliably prevents UV exposure during access.

4. Testing with common objects

5 marks 5d

Test the disinfection box with at least three common household objects (e.g., phone, keys, mask). Document the process with before-and-after photos and a table recording timer settings and observed results. The milestone is complete when you provide evidence that the system operates as intended for different items.

5. Final box assembly

15 marks 5d

Assemble all components into a finished, enclosed disinfection box with secure wiring, accessible controls, and clear labeling. Submit detailed photos of the final build from multiple angles and a short video walkthrough of its operation. The milestone is complete when the box is safe, user-friendly, and fully functional.

6. Arduino Based System To Measure Solar Power

15 marks 5d

Design and build an Arduino-based system to measure and display the solar power received by the box. Submit your circuit diagram, Arduino code, and a video showing real-time solar power readings on an LCD or serial monitor. The milestone is complete when the system accurately measures and displays solar input data.
