IOT BASED SMART DUSTBIN FOR GARBAGE COLLECTION

  • Ravi Kumar S

Abstract

The uncollected waste material when the waste bin is full is a common problem nowadays. Therefore, in order to effectively handle waste materials, effective waste management is necessary. Ensuring a green and clean climate. This paper introduces a Smart Waste Collection Control and Warning System focused on the Internet of Things (IoT) to track the waste material at the chosen garbage collection location. The scheme is implemented using an Arduino UNO-connected ultrasonic sensor to track the amount of waste bin garbage. The waste bin depth level in this device will be transmitted through the Arduino Ethernet Shield with an Internet link to the IoT Cloud. The database stores the collected waste bin level data into an IoT database and displays the waste bin depth level on an online dashboard for real-time visualization. The IoT database manager invokes a notification alert to garbage collector mobile phones via a SMS when the waste bin is nearly filled for immediate waste collection. Therefore, the waste collection became more effective and systematic.
