Looks like an institutional grade hand sanitizer dispenser. Place hands under the spout and bingo.

It's not an industrial hand sanitizer dispenser but there is a relationship between this object and your guess.

Is it a hand dryer/ blower?

It's the hydrostatic release unit on an inflatable life raft.This device automatically launches the life raft as the ship sinks,if it hasn't already been manually launched.
These devices are required under maritime law because,depending on the emergency,ships can sometimes sink so quickly that there is no time for the crew to launch the life rafts manually.
