Inspiration

We were inspired by the increasing garbage problems in our surroundings. Overflowing bins, bad smell, and pollution made us think of a smart solution to keep our environment clean.

What it does

SmartWaste is an intelligent waste management system. It uses smart bins with wet and dry sections and sensors that detect when the bin is full and send alerts for timely collection.

How we built it

We designed a model using a bin divided into two sections (wet and dry waste). We added a simple sensor concept (indicator/light) to show when the bin is full. We used basic materials like cardboard and labels to create our prototype.

Challenges we ran into

We faced difficulty in designing the bin neatly and explaining the sensor concept clearly. Managing space and making the model look realistic was also a challene.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We successfully created a working model idea that is simple, useful, and easy to understand. We are proud that our solution can help keep cities clean and reduce pollution.

What we learned

We learned about waste management, the importance of segregation, and how technology can solve real-life problems. We also improved our teamwork and creativity skills.

What's next for SmartWaste

In the future, we can improve SmartWaste by adding real sensors, mobile app alerts, and using it in public places like schools and cities for better waste management.

SmartWaste – Intelligent Waste Management System

We are excited to share our progress on SmartWaste! Our project focuses on improving waste management using smart bins with separate sections for wet and dry waste, along with a sensor system to detect when the bin is full.

So far, we have successfully designed and created our prototype model. We also worked on explaining how our system can help reduce pollution and keep our surroundings clean.

Next, we are planning to improve our idea by adding real sensors and exploring app-based alerts for better efficiency.

SmartWaste – Smarter bins for a cleaner tomorrow!
