Humans have made great strides in recent decades, but it is still resistant to infectious diseases. The population density in cities, extensive transportation networks between cities and countries and environmental degradation are important factors in the spread of diseases.

Reducing population density in cities, balancing between services and activities, reducing the environmental pollution, development of green spaces and paying more attention to sidewalks are the long-term solutions. We think in facing problems such as pandemics, it's important to raise the level of the health knowledge of people in the community, do health controls and in one word, make culture.

Our solution is Urban Health Kiosk or UHK.

These smart kiosks provide necessary and emergency needs such as masks, disinfectants and check some important disease symptoms like measure body temperature.

UHK is connected to a disease control center.

An application will support UHK to transfer personal and public information to users.

UHK could be a cube module shape with shiny red colour. It's a portable construction that can be placed anywhere.

The entrance of any public places such as bus stops, malls, libraries, cinemas, substations, community centers, gyms, parks, universities and all the other places that people gather are recommended to be equipped with this smart cube.

The smart part of the UHK will be upgraded continuance so it will have all the latest knowledge and technology progress related to health.
