Introduction
With rapid urbanization, waste management has become a
significant challenge. Traditional waste disposal methods
often lead to over filled bins, inefficient waste collection,
and environmental hazards. To address these issues, the
concept of a smart dustbin using the Internet of Things
(IoT) has emerged.
What is Smart dustbin?
A smart dustbin is an automated waste disposal system
integrated with IoT technologies to enhance efficiency,
cleanliness, and sustainability. It typically includes sensors,
microcontrollers, and wireless communication modules to
monitor waste levels and optimize collection schedules.
Objectives of the project
Smart Dustbin project using Arduino generally focus on
improving waste management through automation and sensor
technology. Here are the main goals:
Automatic Lid Operation: Use ultrasonic sensors to detect
when someone approaches, and automatically open the lid
without physical contact.
Hygiene Improvement: Reduce the need to touch the dustbin,
thereby minimizing the spread of germs and improving public
hygiene.
Efficient Waste Management: Alert when the dustbin is full
using sensors, which helps optimize the garbage collection
process.
Low-Cost Automation: Provide a cost-effective solution using
Arduino and basic sensors/components.
Environmental Awareness: Encourage proper waste disposal
habits through the use of smart technology.
Scalability: Lay the foundation for further smart city
integration, like IoT-based garbage monitoring systems.
User-Friendly Operation: Make it easy for users to dispose of
trash without manual effort.
Components required
Microcontroller ( Arduino Uno)
Ultrasonic Sensors (for waste level detection)
Servo Motor (for automatic lid opening)
Wi-Fi Module (for IoT connectivity)
LCD Display (for real-time status display)
Power Supply (battery or adapter)
LED (For indication)
Plastic/Metal Bin (for housing components)
Methodology
Problem Definition: Address the issue of unhygienic manual
waste disposal. Automate the dustbin lid using sensors to
reduce physical contact and improve cleanliness.
Working Principle: When a person approaches the dustbin,
the ultrasonic sensor detects the presence within a set range
(e.g., 10–20 cm). The Arduino receives this signal and triggers
the servo motor. The servo motor opens the lid for a few
seconds and then closes it automatically.
Circuit Setup: Connect the Ultrasonic Sensor (Trig and Echo)
to Arduino digital pins. Connect the Servo Motor signal wire to
a PWM pin (e.g., pin 9).Use a 5V power supply from Arduino
for the sensor and motor. Ground all components properly.
Programming: Write code in Arduino IDE: Read distance
from the ultrasonic sensor. If distance < threshold, rotate servo
to open position. Delay for a few seconds. Return servo to
closed position.
Testing and Calibration: Calibrate the sensor’s detection
range for optimal responsiveness. Adjust servo angles for
proper lid opening/closing. Ensure smooth and safe operation.
Deployment: Mount components securely on the dustbin.
Enclose wiring safely. Test in a real environment (home,
school, office) and observe usage.
