  • Abstract:
  • This paper discusses the concept of creating a smart dustbin to cater to the needs of the increasingly smarter generation. The primary objective is to address the issue of air pollution and the potential dangers posed by viruses associated with unmanaged waste. Neglecting proper garbage disposal can lead to an unhealthy environment, resulting in various diseases that can adversely affect our health. The idea of a smart dustbin is targeted towards smart cities, buildings, educational institutions, and healthcare facilities, among other places. The proposed solution aims to manage garbage disposal and waste management effectively by incorporating new technologies. The implementation involves the utilization of key components such as an Ultrasonic Sensor to measure the distance of objects, a GSM module enabling the Arduino board to connect to the internet and send/receive SMS messages, a PIR sensor to detect motion, and an LCD panel to display messages received from the GSM module, indicating the fill level of the dustbin. This integrated system enables efficient monitoring of garbage collection and waste management, contributing to the creation of a smart, clean, and safe environment.
