Hi.
From the begining of 2020, we met Covid19. We have lost people we have known or loved. Hygene is the one of the most important thing at our life. We use disinfection liquid to clean hands easily. But mostly mechanical pumps are used for spraying disinfectant. We need to press the pump to spray liquid. Shortly we shoul touch it.
Earlier of this year I made a touchless disinfectant sprayer but it works unstable under sunlight. Sometimes it sprays liquid gratuitous. I noticed that sunlight cause it. Because system detects hands by using light. I have used Mz80 or TCRT5000. Sensors are effected by light.
I changed Mz80 to SR04. SR04 uses ultrasonic sound to measure distance. It is working more stable.
3D model can be downloaded from thingiverse:

Components are LM2576 voltage regulator, Arduino Pro Mini, HC-SR04 Sensor, automobile windshield wiper pump.
Machine sprays liquid only one time if you keep your hand under the sensor. Buzzer beeps to warn person to pull hand.
