Wipro Develops Sanitizing Walkway
Wipro Infrastructure Engineering has developed a sanitizing walkway with the support of Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) called ClearWalk in a bid to help in fighting Covid-19. ClearWalk is a two metre-long enclosure fitted walkway fitted with spray nozzles that create fine water particles (between 50 and 100 microns) in a turbulence to give maximum coverage to the person walking through. In crowded areas mass sanitization techniques such as ClearWalk is an additional measure to minimise infection. It is ideal to be placed at the entry and exit of offices, factories, hospitals, hotels, educational institutions and malls. An individual takes two to three seconds to walk through two metre on a wet surface. To ensure effective exposure, an individual needs to halt at the one-metre mark (mid-way) and rotate 360 degrees and continue walking. The total time spent by an individual inside the Walkway will be about five to six seconds. The size of disinfectant generated cannot be directly inhaled, as it will be in the form of fine water droplets.
