SUNBIN: A Cleaner Technology for better Waste Management
Abstract: This document presents a smarter and innovative use of technology in corporate or medium sized dustbin like one installed in public places like bus stands, railway station etc. The use of Arduino as a microcontroller to control the movement of the motor ultimately connected to a plate compressing the waste present in the dustbin to increase the capacity of dustbin by decreasing the volume occupied by the waste present already. The main contribution of this dustbin is basically to reduce the frequency of the waste collecting vehicle, visiting these dustbin sites. Use of the GSM module, eases the work by letting waste collector personal know which dustbin is full, and needs to be cleaned up.
