An Artificial Intelligence Approach for Expurgating Edible and Non-Edible Items

In the pandemic of COVID-19, it is crucial to consider the hygiene of the edible and nonedible things as it could be dangerous for our health to consume infected things. Furthermore, everything cannot be boiled before eating as it can destroy fruits and essential minerals and proteins. So, there is...

description In the pandemic of COVID-19, it is crucial to consider the hygiene of the edible and nonedible things as it could be dangerous for our health to consume infected things. Furthermore, everything cannot be boiled before eating as it can destroy fruits and essential minerals and proteins. So, there is a dire need for a smart device that could sanitize edible items. The Germicidal Ultraviolet C (UVC) has proved the capabilities of destroying viruses and pathogens found on the surface of any objects. Although, a few minutes exposure to the UVC can destroy or inactivate the viruses and the pathogens, few doses of UVC light may damage the proteins of edible items and can affect the fruits and vegetables. To this end, we have proposed a novel design of a device that is employed with Artificial Intelligence along with UVC to auto detect the edible items and act accordingly. This causes limited UVC doses to be applied on different items as detected by proposed model according to their permissible limit. Additionally, the device is employed with a smart architecture which leads to consistent distribution of UVC light on the complete surface of the edible items. This results in saving the health as well as nutrition of edible items.
