Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, and software of the present invention provide for sanitization monitoring of hands, other body parts, and objects. The systems and devices including a detector to provide images of the object within its detection range, and at least one processor to receive the images from the detector, determine areas of the image corresponding to sanitized areas of the object from unsanitized areas of the object, calculate a percentage of sanitized areas to the total area corresponding to the sanitized and unsanitized areas, and report at least the percentage of sanitized area. In various embodiments, users sanitize their hands with fluorescing hand sanitizer and/or a fluorescing germ-proxy agent with soap and water and the sanitized and unsanitized areas are determined based on the amount of fluorescing material remaining on the hands after application.
