SMART BIN SYSTEM: OPTIMIZING WASTE COLLECTION USING IOT
The rapid growth of urban populations has increased waste generation, necessitating efficient wastemanagement systems. This paper presents a Smart Bin using IoT that automates waste monitoring andmanagement. The system utilizes ultrasonic sensors to measure waste levels, a microcontroller to process data,and a Wi-Fi module to transmit real-time information to a cloud platform. When the bin reaches a predefinedthreshold, authorities are notified for timely collection, optimizing routes and reducing operational costs. TheIoT-based Smart Bin offers a scalable, cost-effective solution for modern waste management, promotingsustainability and smart city initiatives.
