 rationale
We need a more efficient way to handle waste.
Manual sorting is slow, messy, and unsustainable.
This approach advocates for using technology to
automate the sorting process with sensors to quickly
and accurately separate materials like plastic,
paper, and metal. Automation reduces manual labor,
minimizes errors, and enhances recycling, creating a
more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally
friendly waste management solution that reduces
pollution and optimizes resource use.

 GENERAL
OBJECTIVE
The general objective of this statement is to underscore
the critical importance of waste management and
segregation in urban areas, particularly in light of the
significant volume of waste generated daily in the
Philippines and the associated risks to public health and
the environment. By integrating Arduino technology, the
system enables real-time waste monitoring and automatic
segregation, thus streamlining the waste collection
process and promoting proper disposal and recycling
habits among residents. 5
 SPECIFIC
OBJECTIVES
·The system has the capability to detect both
Biodegradable, Non-biodegradable waste and
Unidentified Object.
·The system facilitates more efficient waste
segregation than traditional methods.
·The system has the ability to detect whether the
trash bin is full or not.
·The system provides with a hassle-free waste
management experience.
To encouraging the people inside the city of San
Carlos by doing proper disposal habits.

 PRODUCT
SPECIFICATION
The Innovating Waste Management Solution for
Automated Garbage Segregation will focus on the
automatic process waste into separate compartments for
biodegradable, recyclable. The system uses sensors to
detect the type of waste using microcontroller-based
control system, serving as the system’s brain, this
technology makes waste management easier, faster, and
more environmentally friendly.
