Monitoring of marine litter collection device using LoRaWAN on the Peruvian coast

Pollution in the sea and beaches has increased exponentially, causing deaths in marine fauna and with them economic losses, that is why we raised the idea of producing a marine garbage collection device, which is connected to a monitoring system for the filling process. In this way, it will be possible to monitor the state of the garbage collector, being able to observe its weight and the filling level of the garbage collector device, as well as the measurement of airspeed to be able to detect certain climatic parameters that could alter the operation of the collecting device. These communication systems will contribute to an effective and fast collection in the garbage collection process, thus avoiding the collapse in the garbage collectors, as a result, a good response was obtained and we were able to verify that the communication modules are appropriate.
