Hand Hygiene Device in Food Services Industry
PathSpot, a tech startup, has developed a hand hygiene device called the Handscanner to improve handwashing practices in the food services industry and prevent outbreaks of foodborne illnesses. The device uses light fluorescence spectroscopy to detect contaminants on hands and wrists, alerting employees to rewash their hands if necessary. PathSpot has raised over $20 million in funding and is being used in 10,000 food service locations worldwide.
