Abstract

This project aims to design an Automatic trash picking vehicle and is done without human intervention. Garbage collection and management is a large issue undergoing extensive research, and solutions are being proposed accurately. Thanks to an exponential rise in population, there is an increased production of waste, and also a significant amount of litter consisting of plastic, medical waste, paper, and other waste materials are thrown out and dispersed in public. Thus, the need for a most effective waste management strategy is essential. In this project an automated system is provided for segregating types of wastes as biodegradable, non-biodegradable, and metallic wastes. The project is built in such a way that, when it is started it will move on the path defined in the program. When it encounters the obstacle, depending on the conditions applied in the program the robot proceeds with further motion and then robot picks up the garbage. Once it senses the color of trash using color sensor, these sensed values are given to the Arduino UNO, and thus based on the inputs from the controller the system will operate and through the operation of various drivers used it will pick up the trash with robotic arm and thus segregation of wastes into Bio-degradable, Nonbiodegradable can be done by dropping waste into the respective bins. Once the bin gets filled the user will get notified.
