Use foot-operated mechanical systems instead of powered no-touch devices

Why this matters

Infrared sensors on faucets and bins are notorious for not detecting hands or activating randomly. They require batteries and motors. A foot pedal provides 100% reliable, hands-free operation with zero power.

Principle

Reliability creates trust. Use the simplest tool that solves the problem.
