Smart garbage bin

Garbage monitoring has become an essential issue for most of the cities in the world. The detection, monitoring, and management of wastes are one of the primary problems of the present era. Due to the negligence of authorities and carelessness of public, long-term problems such as bad odor and harmful diseases occur. The traditional system of waste collection and management is effective only in those areas where garbage bins become full on a daily basis. But in certain areas, garbage production is low whereas the garbage collection trucks check the garbage level each day. This checking and collection process leads to heavy fuel loss. In remote locations, garbage trucks do not arrive to pick the garbage on time leading to garbage overflow. To overcome these problems we have introduced “Smart Garbage Bin” as an effective system. The smart garbage bin employs a level detector that detects the amount of garbage in the bin. When the level of garbage in the bin reaches 75%, a notification is sent to the operator of the garbage collecting vehicle through a web interface.
