Abstract

Clean bin is an idea for producing an excellent smart dustbin that can automatically open the lid when it detects people who want to throw out their trash. Beside this, it can also smartly detect the level of the trash that is inside the dustbin. To achieve the main objective, two element of engineering are combines: mechanical and electrical component. For electrical component, the ideas are to make the dustbin automatically open based on infrared technology. A simple control system involves PIC Microcontroller, infrared module sensor for distance sensing, mechanical arm with servo motor and (Light Emitting Device) LED indicator. Meanwhile for mechanical element, a simple arm is used to push the lid of the dustbin. The idea is to link the arm with the servo motor then the arm rotates as it follows the rotation of the servo motor. By combining this two main element, a smart clean bin is produced. The objective of the study was to determine the characterization of the waste and the current system of management activities.
