 Introduction

 Because of the pandemic of COVID-19, many medical supplies

are missing.
 Commodities such as auto soap dispenser have been in short
supply.

2
 Objectives

 To familiar with how to build the complete system with Arduino

UNO based on different sensors
◆ 12v DC motor
◆ Motor driver IC
◆ Infrared sensor
 To implement an auto soap/alcohol dispenser that can automatically
release soap/alcohol without contact

PIN
Description
NAME NO.
INPUT 10,15 Driver inputs, noninverting
OUTPUT 11,14 Driver outputs
EN 9 When this pin is at a high voltage,
the IC on the right half can be
activated
GND 12,13 Device ground
VS 8 Power VCC for drivers 4.5 V to 36
V
VSS 16 5-V supply for internal logic
translation

 Specifications - infrared sensor: HW-201

 Operation Voltage: 3.3V - 5V

 Active Output level:
◆ Outputs Low logic level when potentiometer
obstacle is detected
 Detection angle: 35°
 Detection distance: 20-30 cm
◆ It can be adjusted by the
potentiometer
» Clockwise: the detection distance
increases
 PIN
» Counterclockwise: the detection
distance decreases ◆ VCC: 3.3V-5V
◆ GND: GND
◆ OUTPUT: digital 0 or 1

 Lab Requirement

 Please make a auto soap/alcohol dispenser

 Lab requirements are:

◆ To detect there is a hand in front of the infrared sensor
» Attention: try to avoid false alarm as much as possible

◆ After detecting there is a hand, please release soap/alcohol for one second

◆ Time interval between two soap/alcohol should be at least five seconds

 Your score will be higher if you can design a mold for your auto

soap/alcohol dispenser
