Trash bin that has been provided by the government or agency cleanliness usually only become decoration or complement on the public places that unkempt and uninsteresting. Perhaps it is also a factor that causes the people don’t want to throw trash to the place. Viewed from …show more content…
With this view, then created a tool that can attract people to dispose of trash by utilizing existing technology that is "Smart Trash Bin with Passive Infra Red and Ultrasonic Sensors Based On Arduino ". It is a dumpster that works automatically on the cap trash bin can open itself when the user is in front of the trash bin and then closed again after trash has been entered and the user has moved away from the trash bin, in the same moment also the trash bin will deliver a message about preserving the environment like "Please throw your trash here" and when the cover opens. And at the time of closing the cap trash bin will deliver message "Thank you for dispose of trash in place. And always keep the cleanliness around you” and emoticon smile in LED dot …show more content…
Design and implemented this smart trash bin using Arduino Uno.
b. Using passive infra red sensor as a tool that detect any user are in front of the trash bin and ultrasonic sensor as a tool that detect the level trash volume.
c. Using motor servo to open and close again the cap of trash bin with time delay.
d. This trash bin can not detect organic and non-organic trash.
Based on the above problem formulation, then the purpose of writing this final project as follows:
a. Design a system to ease and interest the people to dispose of their trash in place.
b. Knowing and understanding generally the arduino, sensors, and components that related in this final project.
c. As a requirement to completing the course at the Politeknik Negeri Medan.
This final project will be useful if it were to:
a. With this tool, people who want to dispose of their trash should not be in direct contact with the trash bin.
b. With this tool, the people are expected to dispose of trash in place and more concerned about cleanliness environment.
c. The students can gain their knowledge and insight in carrying out this final
