Abstract:
The presently disclosed subject matter is generally directed to a dispensing device that enables sensor-activated dispensing and playing of an auditory tone. The disclosed dispenser includes a housing comprising an internal reservoir that retains the product to be dispensed. The dispenser further includes one or more sensors that act as a motion detector to release a predetermined amount of product from the internal reservoir. The motion sensor further triggers the release of one or more predetermined auditory tones to be played from a speaker configured in the lower portion of the dispenser. Accordingly, users are encouraged to frequently use the dispenser, such as for hand washing and other activities.
