Spatially reactive water system incorporating a non tactile control module

摘要

A touchless water control system having at least one sensor capable of determining hand movement from point A to point B in a first direction, from point C to point D in a second direction and from point E to point F in a third direction thereby establishing a spatial field spaced away from a faucet through which a user's hand can be moved to initiate or terminate water flow, water temperature and water pressure.

主权项

1. A spatially reactive water system comprising:
a) a water supply conduit comprising a faucet having a spout above a sink in fluid communication with a water source; b) an electronically controlled valve inter-disposed between said water supply conduit and said water source; c) first and second sensors deployed to a side of said sink constructed and arranged to detect motions of a hand of a user, said sensors creating a three dimensional zone through which an operator moves said hand to control initiation of water flow, intensity of water flow, temperature of water being dispensed from said faucet, and water shut-off, said sensors being perpendicularly disposed to each other where water temperature and pressure are programmably regulated through locational interpretation of the user's hand moving through said three dimensional zone; d) a processor in electrical communication with said sensors and electronically controlled valves for controlling water flow through said faucet; and e) a power supply in electrical communication with the sensors, processor and valves.
