The scholars below the steering of Atal Chaudhuri, vice chancellor of VSSUT, have additionally ready an automated hand sanitiser dispenser.
Additionally it is contactless and a low-price software, he mentioned.
“Within the close to future, now we have deliberate to go for mass manufacturing of it to provide to individuals and organisations,” the professor added.
