Patent Issued for Scrolling protective film system for touchscreen (USPTO 12086403).

A patent has been issued to Xerox Corporation for a scrolling protective film system for touchscreens. The system is designed to disinfect touchscreens, which can be areas of disease transmission between users. The system includes rollers that move a web of transparent material across the touchscreen, exposing it to ultraviolet radiation to sanitize it. The system also includes a sensor that detects user activity and triggers the disinfection cycle. This technology could be particularly useful in retail settings where touchscreens are frequently used by multiple people. [Extracted from the article]
