RECOMMENDATION OF SENSOR BASED SMART DUSTBINS USING IOT

Abstract

This paper presents the design of smart dustbins for enhancement in waste management systems. There has been an increase in the garbage for urban areas due to drastic rise in population. Automatically operated Smart dustbins using IOT and sensor based technology are a boon to curb the problem of waste management. Traditional dustbins are manually handled by pressing foot against lever and throwing garbage. Trackers are needed to monitor on when it is full so that it can be emptied. Overflow of garbage results in land pollution, spread of diseases, and it creates unhealthy conditions for individuals and environment. Thus, there has to be a technology or system that must provide the vital signs of filling the bin that alerts the local municipality to clear the trash and protect our mother earth. In order to handle such problems, we proposed a system “Smart Dustbin using IOT and Sensors”. The proposed system provides an alert signals to inform the authorized individual by blink or buzzer. This system reduces labour effort with minimal resources. To support the smart city vision and to provide pollution free, green and healthy environment for a better lifestyle for mankind.
