System and method for determining sanitization status
Configuring a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises. A first predefined pattern is received on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process. Subsequently, a second predefined pattern is received on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process. An indicator is displayed based on the first predefined pattern and the second determined pattern and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
1 . A method comprising:
configuring a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises;
receiving a first predefined pattern on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
receiving a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count; and
displaying an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
2 . The method as claimed is claim 1 , wherein a mobile device of the authorized person is configured to communicate with the lock of the premises and fetch the sanitization status of the premises.
3 . The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the mobile device of the authorized person uses a client application to communicate with the lock.
4 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern are configured to enable the sanitization status of the premises only within the predetermined time interval.
5 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the premises comprises a sensor configured to sense a level of sanitization inside the premises.
6 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensor is configured to compare the level of sanitization with a predefined value.
7 . The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the sensor wirelessly communicates the level sanitization to the lock of the premises.
8 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the authorized user is a guest.
9 . The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein on indication that the sanitization process is completed, the lock is only accessible by the guest and restricted to other authorized users.
10 . A system comprising:
a lock associated with a premises and configured with a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing the premises, the lock further configured to:
receive a first predefined pattern on the lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
receive a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count; and
display an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicate the sanitization status to an authorized user.
11 . The system as claimed is claim 10 , comprising a mobile device of the authorized person configured to communicate with the lock and fetch the sanitization status of the premises.
12 . The system as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the mobile device of the authorized person uses a client application to communicate with the lock.
13 . The system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern are configured to enable the sanitization status of the premises only within the predetermined time interval.
14 . The system as claimed in claim 10 , comprising a sensor configured to sense a level of sanitization inside the premises.
15 . The system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the sensor is configured to compare the level of sanitization with a predefined value, wherein the sensor wirelessly communicates the level sanitization to the lock of the premises.
16 . The system as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the authorized user is a guest, wherein on indication that the sanitization process is completed, the lock is only accessible by the guest and restricted to other authorized users.
17 . A computer readable medium comprising a memory storing instructions executed by one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:
configure a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises;
receive a first predefined pattern on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
receive a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count; and
display an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
