| Abstract |
In the present ingenious world, every country is accelerating in the process of developing smart cities. As a part of developing smart cities, public toilets have been entrenched at every nook and corner of the country. Yet, the hygiene and cleanliness in our country are at gunpoint due to the improper maintenance of public toilets. Because of this reason, though there are many public toilets available, people are not ready to use them with the fear of getting infected or falling sick after using the public toilet that is not properly maintained This paper proposes a new idea with the help of advancing technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT). They are smart testing toolkits that can be installed in public toilets so that people can safely use them without any fear. It also contributes to converting the public toilets from disease transmitters to smart toilets that contribute to the health and well-being of the nation. As prevention is better than cure, the implementation of proposed idea can prevent the transmission of diseases that are caused by using the ill-maintained public toilets. © 2022 IEEE. |
