Abstract :
Waste collection system driven by Artificial
Intelligence and Robotics is sine qua non to having a
smart city. Unlike the traditional waste collection
systems which have been largely ineffective due to lack
of technological advancement and increasing growing
population, the proposed system provides more
efficiency and timeliness in waste collection and disposal,
giving room for less lacuna for waste bin overflows. The
Bin is based on the concept of mechatronics, which
empowers it with sensors, and robotic control systems
that is capable of detecting the status of the waste bin,
and automatically moves it to the disposal center
whenever it is filled up. The mechatronic waste bin
consist of rover wheels which allows the bin to move
around uneven roads and terrains, each wheel has a DC
motor, Digital servo, RC Transmitter, a sensor camera, a
PCB, and an Arduino mega board. The sensor monitors
the bin and gives an alarm signal to the controller. If the
bin is filled up, it covers itself automatically, and moves
to a nearby dump with the aid of the Dc motors.
