Automatic Garbage Collection-Using Robotic Vehicle

Abstract

According to the current system for the collection of waste materials and garbage from dumpsters, there are some limitations, such as time-consuming and less efficient waste management, which is now a difficult task for municipal corporations. This paper presents an automatic collection and monitoring of garbage using IOT. In different parts of the city, the garbage dumpster is kept in different public places and along the roads where it is overflowing due to an increasing waste system and lack of monitoring. It creates an bad and unhealthy environment, many diseases spread around the environment that are hazardous to our health. So this problem can be solved by using sensors that are kept in place to monitor the overflow of garbage dumpsters so that it is easy to determine which dumpster is full. When the garbage level reaches the threshold, the controller sends an RF signal to the vehicle. Once the vehicle receives the RF signal, it starts and moves to the garbage dumpsters and stops below it, and the controller activates the dumpster engine to drop the garbage inside the vehicle, and then the vehicle moves to the next dumpster. The entire process is fully automatic, but for the safer side it is also possible to control the vehicle via Bluetooth in manual mode.
