Abstract: The loT-Based Smart Soap Dispenser is an automated, touchless hygiene system designed to minimize human contact and reduce the spread of infections in public and private environments. The system utilizes an infrared (IR) sensor to detect the presence of a user's hand and activates a microcontroller-based control unit to dispense a predefined amount of liquid soap through a peristaltic pump. Integrated with Internet of Things (loT) technology, the device enables real-time monitoring of soap usage, liquid levels, and system performance through a connected dashboard or mobile interface. The system can generate alerts for low soap levels and maintenance requirements, ensuring continuous and efficient operation. This smart solution enhances hygiene standards, reduces soap wastage, and provides data-driven insights, making it suitable for applications in hospitals, public restrooms, educational institutions, offices, and smart homes. The proposed system offers a cost-effective, scalable, and efficient approach to modern sanitation management.
