Internet of Things Based Smart Waste Management System


INTRODUCTION

Due to rapid population growth, disorganization of city governments, a lack of public awareness and limited funding for programs, garbage management is becoming a global problem. Due to the lack of care and attention by the authorities the garbage bins are mostly seem to be overflowing. It has to be taken into care by corresponding authorities and should think what method can be followed to overcome this. In this project smart garbage management system is implemented using sensors, micro controllers and ESP8266 Wi Fi Controller assures the cleaning of dustbins soon when the garbage level reaches its maximum. If the dustbin is not cleaned in specific time, then the record is sent to the higher authority who can take appropriate action against the concerned contractor. This system also helps to monitor the fake reports and hence can reduce the corruption in the overall management system. This reduces the total number of trips of garbage collection vehicle and hence reduces the overall expenditure associated with the garbage collection. It ultimately helps to keep cleanness in the society. Smart collection bin works with the sensors will show us the various levels of garbage in the dustbins and also the weight sensor gets activated to send its output ahead when its threshold level is crossed. The level of dustbin is indicated on the display. PIR sensor check the presence of human being and motion so when a person is coming toward the dustbin it will detect presence of person and it will automatically open. The range is selected 2 to 3 m.  Load cell is a sensor used to check the weight of dustbin sometimes the level is not full but the heavy garbage is placed in it due to which the dustbin may get damage to avoid this we used load cell. In some case the value of level sensor and load cell is not changed but still garbage is drop at that time the buzzer will sounds. Sometimes some poisonous gases are developed in the dustbin which are hazardous for human health these gases are detected by gas sensor and it will sprinkle the baking soda. Ultrasonic  sensors  are  used  for 
distance  measuring  applications.  These  gadgets regularly transmit a short burst of ultrasonic sound to a  target,  which  reflects  the  sound  back  to  the  sensor. The  system  then  measures  the  time  for  the  echo  to return to the sensor and computes the distance to the target using the speed of sound within the medium.

IoT Based Contact less Tachometer with Speed Control Using AVR Microcontroller and Hall Effect Sensor

Image
ABSTRACT Tachometer is device used to count the revolutions per minute of a rotating shaft. Generally tachometer makes direct contact with the rotating shaft. It will reduce the velocity of the shaft, giving faulty readings. Hence it is needed to measure the speed of rotating shaft without direct contact. This project describes a contact -less tachometer using AVR microcontroller ATmega328P and a hall affect sensor. This device can very accurately measure the rotational speed of a shaft without even touching it. This device is built on an ATmega328P microcontroller, an alpha-numeric LCD module and a Hall Effect sensor to detect the rotation of the shaft whose speed is being measured. In this project Hall Effect sensor acts as a digital counting device. It will detect any magnetic element passing in front of it and thus, will give an output pulse for each and every rotation of the shaft. These pulses are fed to microcontroller. Microcontroller counts the pulses coming from Ha...

Power Line Carrier Communication Using X10 Protocol

Image
ABSTRACT Most   electric   power   companies   employs   power   meter reader   to   collect   data   on   the customer’s energy consumption. Usually, this task is carried out manually, which can lead to high cost and errors, causing financial losses. This project has taken some approaches to minimize these problems. As in everywhere automation is required to reduce the work so we decided to implement to automatic meter reading using power line communication (PLC). Automatic meter reading (AMR) is the modern Power measuring device. It has advantages in safety, real time measuring and time saving as well as it has a better user interface and digital data analysis. Data is   send   over   existing   power   line   using   X10   protocol   that   reduces   the   complexity   and   cost   of system. In the latest generation of home automation systems, appl...
