ITT569 Mini Project Proposal

This document presents a project proposal for a smart rubbish bin system in residential areas using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The system uses ultrasonic sensors to detect when the bin is full and notifies the local government through a WiFi module. It aims to make waste management more efficient, reduce labor costs, and keep the environment cleaner. The system components include an Arduino board, ultrasonic sensors, LED, buzzer, WiFi module, and micro servo motor. It is similar to existing automatic systems that use sensors to detect objects/motion and trigger a response.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1.0 Project Background

Waste management is a major issue that the world faces, regardless of whether
the country is produced or developing. The main factors responsible for this issue
are urbanization and population growth. Population growth, increased food demand,
and a variety of other factors are all influencing the environment in iot technology.
With the current increase in population, waste or garbage management is a very
stressful job to do. Every local house, industry, and factory continues to generate
some amount of rubbish on a daily basis as a member of society. This waste is
eventually collected in rubbish bins, collected by garbage pickup vehicles, and
moved to waste disposal. Monitoring and disposing of waste is critical these days for
keeping the environment green and clean. Improper disposal and monitoring of
collected trash in rubbish bins can endanger human lives. Smart rubbish bins in
residential areas are being designed to address the waste management issue.

1.1 Problem Statement

We often see that public rubbish bins are always full and if concerned people do
not receive information in a timely manner, it can lead to an unpleasant situation. At
the same time, a foul odor pervaded the surrounding area. Environmental damage
and a variety of dangerous diseases are common in the area, which is easily spread.
Furthermore, due to Covid-19 disease many people feel traumatized to touch any
surfaces that have been touched by many people such as trash can lid. This is due
to the covid-19 that can be spread by touch.

1.2 Objective

● To make the daily life of the user become easier


● To avoid overflowing of rubbish
● To develop a centralized system for real-time monitoring.

1.3 Significant
● Labor cost reduction and resource optimization
● Proposing an intelligent dumpster system based on IoT technology and
applications.
● Make the city cleaner and pollute-free.

CHAPTER 2 IOT SYSTEM JUSTIFICATION
2.0 System Definition and Boundary

This project's ultrasonic sensors are used to determine whether or not the rubbish
bin is full of garbage. When the distance calculated by the ultrasonic sensors is less
than the threshold value programmed in the microcontroller, the trash bin is filled.
The governmental organization is notified via WiFi modem (IoT) by showing the
message "Rubbish Bin Is Already Full" on the server and the buzzer will make a
noise. Otherwise, if there is still a lot of empty space in the rubbish bin, the sensor
will keep silent and it will display “Rubbish Bin Is Not Full” on the server. . To prevent
false activation of the message to the municipal government, three sensors have also
been added into the system. Other than that, there is an LED on the rubbish bin to
determine whether the rubbish bin is full or not. If the rubbish bin is full, the LED will
light up red and the trash can lid won't open, if it is still empty it will stay green.

2.1 System Requirements and Specification


● 1x Maker Uno
● 1x piezo buzzer
● 1x LED
● 1x Ultrasonic sensor
● 1x ESP8266Wi-Fi module
● 1x Micro Servo TS90

2.2 Similarities of the current or existing system


The concept of this smart bin has been widely used in our daily lives. The
technology used is the same as the one that we have used on our toll system which
is RFID. It will detect the chip that has been placed inside the sticker and
automatically deduct the money and if it is successful, the toll gate will be opened.
Other than that, the latest technology that has been produced due to covid-19 is
automatic hand sanitizer dispenser. This automatic sanitizer is built with an infrared
sensor that senses human hands and it will dispense the liquid sanitizer. The same
technology has been used in our smart bin. First of all, the bin will detect if someone
wants to throw away their rubbish inside the rubbish bin by using an ultrasonic
sensor to detect motion. If there is motion detected, the lid will be opened without the
need of human’s help.
