Abstract
The goal of this project is to create a smart bin that will enhance office space waste management systems by maintaining a clean office environment. A dual compartment design has been adopted - one for disposable and one for non-disposable waste. The design consists of ultrasonic sensors for waste level detection, load sensors for weight limits and the lids which require servo motors. At the heart of the system lies an Arduino Uno. Smart hands free waste bins have the potential to revolutionize waste management by improving efficiency, reducing costs, and promoting a healthier environment. However, there are some challenges to consider such as the high cost of implementing such technology, potential technical issues, and the need for proper maintenance and upkeep to ensure optimal performance. Overall, the benefits of smart hands free waste bins outweigh the drawbacks, and further research and development are needed to improve the technology and make it more accessible to a wider range of communities.
