Hand hygiene dispenser

Abstract

Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for dispensing material using a hand hygiene apparatus. The hand hygiene apparatus may comprise a dispensing device configured to dispense at least some material. The hand hygiene apparatus may comprise a first motion sensing device configured to activate an alert responsive to detecting a movement. The hand hygiene apparatus may comprise a second motion sensing device configured to deactivate the alert or activate a second alert responsive to detecting a second movement.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for dispensing at least some material, comprising:
 a first motion sensing device configured to activate an alert responsive to detecting a movement; and   a second motion sensing device configured to, responsive to detecting a second movement, at least one of:
 deactivate the alert; or 
 activate a second alert. 
   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , the alert comprising at least one of:
 an optical alert; or   an auditory alert.   
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , comprising a dispensing device configured to dispense at least some material. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , the second movement detected by the second motion sensing device when a user activates the dispensing device. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 4 , the activating of the dispensing device by the user comprising at least one of:
 the second movement detected by the second motion sensing device; or   an activation by the user of a physical trigger on the dispensing device.   
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , at least one of:
 the first motion sensing device configured to detect the first movement based upon at least one of a first beam or a first radiation; or   the second motion sensing device configured to detect the second movement based upon at least one of a second beam, a second radiation or a physical trigger.   
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , at least one of the first motion sensing device or the second motion sensing device comprising a passive infrared sensor. 
     
     
         8 . A method for dispensing at least some material, comprising:
 activating an alert responsive to detecting a movement; and   deactivating the alert or activating a second alert responsive to detecting a second movement.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , the alert comprising at least one of:
 an optical alert; or   an auditory alert.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 8 , comprising using a dispensing device to dispense at least some material. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , the second movement detected by the second motion sensing device when a user activates the dispensing device. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , the activating of the dispensing device by the user comprising at least one of:
 the second movement detected by the second motion sensing device; or   an activation by the user of a physical trigger on the dispensing device.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 8 , at least one of:
 the first motion sensing device configured to detect the first movement based upon at least one of a first beam or a first radiation; or   the second motion sensing device configured to detect the second movement based upon at least one of a second beam, a second radiation or a physical trigger.   
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 13 , at least one of the first motion sensing device or the second motion sensing device comprising a passive infrared sensor. 
     
     
         15 . A hand hygiene apparatus for dispensing at least some material, comprising:
 a dispensing device configured to dispense at least some material;   a first motion sensing device configured to activate an alert comprising at least one of an optical alert or an auditory alert responsive to detecting a movement based upon at least one of a first beam or a first radiation; and   a second motion sensing device configured to, responsive to detecting a second movement when a user activates the dispensing device based upon at least one of a second beam, a second radiation or a physical trigger, at least one of:
 deactivate the alert; or 
 activate a second alert comprising at least one of a second optical alert or a second auditory alert, 
 the activating of the dispensing device by the user comprising at least one of:
 the second movement detected by the second motion sensing device; or 
 an activation by the user of a physical trigger on the dispensing device. 
 
   
     
     
         16 . The hand hygiene apparatus of  claim 15 , at least one of the first motion sensing device or the second motion sensing device comprising a passive infrared sensor. 
     
     
         17 . The hand hygiene apparatus of  claim 15 , the auditory alert indicative of at least one of a voice, a beep or a chime. 
     
     
         18 . The hand hygiene apparatus of  claim 15 , the apparatus coupled to a wall. 
     
     
         19 . The hand hygiene apparatus of  claim 18 , the optical alert configured to shine on the wall. 
     
     
         20 . The hand hygiene apparatus of  claim 18 , the optical alert configured to shine on the wall in a first color, the second optical alert configured to shine on the wall in a second color different than the first color.
