Overview

Experimental prototype development demonstrates automated fill-level tracking and remote alert synchronization for municipal bins, highlighting scalable infrastructure for urban waste management.

Key Points

  • To design and evaluate a low-cost, automated Internet of Things (IoT) waste management prototype that addresses municipal collection inefficiencies.
  • Engineered an automated prototype using an Arduino UNO microcontroller integrated with dual ultrasonic sensors for touchless lid movement and container fill-level detection.
  • Configured a Wi-Fi communication module to transmit real-time telemetry data to a centralized mobile application interface with automated threshold alerts.
  • Experimental testing verified reliable sensor calibration and rapid touchless proximity response for automated container lid access.
  • The system demonstrated consistent wireless data synchronization and automated alert generation upon reaching maximum fill capacity.
