The journey
When we had started designing the cell phone sanitizer in early 2017, we knew the need of a sanitizer for the cell phone through the study of our partners at The National Centre for Microbial Resource (NCMR) , Pune. However we knew we were targeting only a small section of the world as most people would think “Why do I need a sanitizer for the cell phone?”. However scientific studies at NCMR pointed a real need for the cell phone sanitizer.
We looked at the existing sanitizers for the phone and found that there were only a few products that catered to the need and all of them only featured a UVC sanitizer. UVC is good but it only kills the germs present on the cell phone for that moment. Once the cell phone is taken out of the device, germs can settle on it again. Therefore in our first prototype, we added a combination of UVC and a liquid solution (not sprayed directly on the phone) that enabled the cell phones to keep avoiding the germs from settling on it for multiple hours.
Feedback
Once we prototyped the product, we got the feedback from early users (healthcare professional at US hospitals ) that a hand sanitizer would be needed as people would want to sanitize their hands as well after keeping the device. Also early users wanted a display on the device in order to know when the cleaning cycle was over. So we added all these features and are ready to release Mobioclean, the 4 in one phone sanitizer.
