Garbage Monitoring System using Internet of Things (IoT)

There has been a sharp increase in urban development plans during the past few years .Solid waste management, which affects health problems and pollutes the environment of our civilization, has been one of the key environmental concerns. One of the main issues in the modern era is the identification, monitoring, and control of wastes. The old method of manually checking the waste in trash cans requires more human labor, time, and expense, all of which can be easily avoided with the use of current technologies. The Smart Buildings, Colleges, Hospitals and Bus Stands are the intended recipients of the Garbage Monitoring System concept. The garbage monitoring system is a technique that keeps cities hygienic and tidy.A novel concept called the garbage monitoring system turns a standard trash can into a smart one by employing ultrasonic sensors to detect the level of rubbish and DC motors to close the garbage bags.
