Development of IoT Based Smart Dustbin Monitoring System

The objective of this proposed system is to stay clean and to cover all urban areas of Indian cities. In existing waste collection systems, there is no proper planning for waste collection due to certain problems that make the city unsanitary. The work which consists in cleaning the trash cans is not responsible and which aggravates the system in the event of emergency, an appropriate monitoring is compulsory to keep the city clean and green. Only the manual waste collection system is available. There are no automatic or technological systems. This proposed system is designed for efficient waste collection using the Internet of Things. The system uses a cloud-based monitoring system for monitoring waste. With the use of a cloud-based system, there is no need to regularly check the bins. The proposed model has dustbins contain Arduino based sensing and monitoring system which gives the information about the levels of filling of dustbins and locations. Whenever any dustbin is filled up, a message is sent to the concerned central station where regularly monitoring the levels and positions of dustbins is to be done. This station monitors all the dustbin levels and gives the directions of collecting the garbage by sending message to the garbage collectors and authority. This will avoid overflow of waste in the bin. A prototype of proposed system to be designed as per the consideration of all problems in garbage collection process and by this the proposal makes the city towards a smart city. That fulfils the goals of Swachhbharat.
