Hand dryer

A "hand dryer" is an electric machine which might make use of a heating element and an air blower to dry both the hands after hand washing. Since 1922, it is commonly used in public toilets around the world as a cost-effective alternative to paper towels.

It may either operate with the gentle push of a button or automatically using a sensor.
