Abstract
Garbage bins placed at public places in the cities are overflowing due to increase in the waste every day. It creates unhygienic condition for the people and produces bad smell around the surroundings which spreads some deadly diseases & human illness. To avoid such a situation “IoT Based Waste Management Using Smart Dustbin” is designed. Multiple dustbins located throughout the city or the Campusare considered. These dustbins are provided with sensors which help in tracking the level of the garbage bins and an unique ID is provided for every dustbin in the city, so that it is easy to identify which garbage bin is full. When the level reaches the threshold limit, the device will transmit the level along with the unique ID provided. Once the bins are full then user will not be able to access the bins. In such circumstances the bin displays the direction of the nearby bins on LED displays. It also generates the voice messages if the user place the waste on the floor. The status of the bin is accessed by the concern authorities from their place with the help of Internet and an immediate action is taken to replace overflowing bins with the empty bins.For this system,Microcontroller processes the data from the sensor and it sends information to the authorized person via IoT.To monitor and integrate, an android application is developed for transmitting and storing the desired information which is related to the various level of waste in different locations. This ensures the green and clean environment
