SwachhPath: Smart Waste Management System

Inspiration

We noticed that many cities still face problems like overflowing dustbins, poor waste segregation, and unnecessary garbage truck routes.

What it does

SwachhPath helps monitor dustbins in real time, guides people to dispose of waste correctly, allows people to dispose of waste correctly, allows users to request bulk waste pickup, and helps municipal authorities collect waste more efficiently.

How we built it

We planned the system using smart bins with sensors, a cloud database, a mobile app, an AI chatbot, and a dashboard for municipal authorities. Each module works together to improve waste management.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest challenge was combining different ideas into one simple system. We also had to make sure that every feature was practical and could be implemented in real-world conditions.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of building a solution that not only monitors dustbins but also connects citizen and municipal authorities through a single platform.

What we learned

The project helped us understand how different technologies can work together to solve everyday problems. We also learned the importance of designing solutions that are practical, not just innovative.

What's next for SwachhPath: Smart Waste Management System

Our next goal is to build a working prototype, test it with real users, and improve the system based on feedback. We also want to make waste collection more accurate using real-time data.
