The conceptual 'Universal Dryer' has been designed by Yeon Jin Soo and Designer Dot as a more accessible appliance for public washrooms that would provide users with an intuitive way to dry their hands after cleansing. The appliance has a rotating design that can be used in both vertical and horizontal positions, which makes it ideal for users standing in front of it, in a wheelchair and shorter or taller people. The system utilizes a UV light within that will sterilize the air inside and around it with use to prevent germs from being blasted around the room.
The conceptual 'Universal Dryer' also features HEPA filters within that will trap any pathogens or germs that could be captured through the air inlet to prevent them from being blown onto the hands of the user.
