Smart Waste-Bin Monitoring System

Waste-bin close to residential have become a scene to be hold and required urgent attention. Often times the position of these waste-bins within the residence are accompany by flies, rotten smell of dumb waste and severe types of harmful insects due to lack of proper waste management. In this paper, we propose a smart wastebin monitoring system that creates awareness to the authority and also the resident. This paper suggest a frame work based on application of Internet of things where sensor device can be used to monitor waste-bin through web using internet connectivity. The sensor used in this research is an ultrasonic sensor that monitored waste based on the ultrasound wave at frequency of 40 KHz. It senses the object and then bounces back to the sensor to determine the distance of the waste-bin level. The device is cost-effective and will promote a hygienic environment if implemented.
