Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a smart hand sanitization and chamber sterilization system (100) comprising a disinfecting chamber (102) configured to receive at least one hand of a user, a disinfectant reservoir (104) storing a disinfectant liquid, and an ultrasonic mist generating unit (106) fluidically connected to the disinfectant reservoir (104) for generating a disinfectant fog within the disinfecting chamber (102). A UV-C sterilization unit (108) irradiates internal surfaces of the disinfecting chamber (102) after each use. A first sensor (110) detects user presence within a predetermined external detection range and a second sensor (112) detects placement of the at least one hand within the disinfecting chamber (102). A controller (114), operatively coupled to the first sensor (110), the second sensor (112), the ultrasonic mist generating unit (106), the UV-C sterilization unit (108), and at least one switching module (116), enforces sequential operation.
