COVID -19 has fundamentally altered certain aspects of everyday life across the globe.

The COVID-19 pandemic has propelled alcohol-based hand sanitizers (ABHS) and face-masks to the forefront in the fight against the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). A closer look at the labels of ABHS products on the market, however, reveals that directions for use are either absent, ambiguous or incomplete. Only a few are satisfactory, raising the question as to whether they are being used properly. A recent study by the authors revealed that 32 % of samples did not have any user instructions at all (Nyamweya and Abuga, 2020).
In a bid to address the emerging trend of adaptable, cost-effective and custom-built solutions, the Department of Electrical and Information Engineering (UoN) intends to apply innovative techniques in engineering education to extend its current curriculum.
