Arduino-Based Garbage Monitoring System

Abstract

In the present-day scenario, many times we see that the garbage bins or dust bin placed at public places in the cities are overflow due to increase in the waste every day. It creates unhygienic condition for the people and creates bad smell around the surroundings this leads in spreading some deadly diseases and human illness, to avoid such attenuation “Arduino based garbage monitoring system is designed. There is a sensor that will automatically open, ones a user approaches the bin for ease of garbage collection, when the level reaches threshold limits, the device will transmit the level. These details can be accessed by the concern authorities from their place with the help of GSM and an immediate action can be made to empty the dustbins. The Garbage monitoring system thought is an improvement of normal dustbin by elevating it to be smart using sensors. Garbage monitoring system is a new idea of implementation which makes a normal dustbin smart using ultrasonic sensors for garbage level detection, display and sending message to the concern department person updating the status of the bin using GSM modem.
