Summary: In the midst of coronavirus disease, people are instructed to abide by the safety measure written in a standard operating procedure (SOP). One of the SOP is to wash hands frequently by using soap and water or hand sanitiser. The hand sanitiser is usually placed at a certain area for stationary application which can be hard to locate in a crowd of people and consume space and time for people during queuing. The project is designed to increase the effectiveness of SOP. The hand sanitiser dispenser is implemented onto a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to offer automatic hand sanitiser dispensing and body temperature scanning which is controlled with a Raspberry Pi board and equipped with a few sensor modules. The drone will fly autonomously towards the user when it recognizes a hand gesture that is raising both hands. An Ultrasonic sensor is used to measure the distance between the quadrotor and the user.
