When hospital Infection Control says jump, even surgeons defer. Putting the solution right at a key transmission point is huge. Clear driver(IC), low cost, metrics, and consumables add up to a solid product opportunity. Even better if the handle material itself was anti-microbial.
@batobey Even better if our hands were anti-microbial :)

This is the kind of out of the box thinking that I like to see. Limitations but just free enough to be really effective. MAYA Most Advanced Yet Acceptable.
I've gotten pretty good at opening doors with my toes.

Thanks for all the positive comments. We worked on the design of this for altitude medical (http://www.agencyofdesign.co.uk/...). We put a lot of thought into how simple the product and interaction should be. There are a lots of ways to try and tackle hand sanitizing in hospitals but I think our approach of a simple, retrofit product that is 'in the right place at the right time’ was the right approach to go for. There was also a lot of thought on whether you should 'force' behaviours to make people sanitize. Our approach was to make it optional but so easy it should become habitual. Larger trials will be underway soon so we're pretty excited about seeing the results.
Beautiful. This is the epitome of creative thinking and innovation.

I endorse very much the handless doors because the doors are collecting a lot of microbes on it. Also, I think that every shop must have sanitizers for clients. I'm owning a drugstore and every day I'm buying aloe vera hand sanitizer from https://arcreef.com/product/hand... for carefully of my workers and clients. I think that the drugstores have to be disinfected very well because many infected people can enter in.
