Abstract
A device inspection apparatus includes an enclosure for holding a device while air is blown through it. The air flow enters through an enclosure intake, passes through the device, and exits past a particulate sensor. The sensor provides a level of particulates in the air flow. This value is used to determine if the device requires cleaning. This can reduce labor costs as only devices that need cleaning are opened. The device cleaning apparatus can be used for various devices with vents, such as set top boxes, desktop computers, and laptops.
