Development f Smart Garbage Bins for Automated Segregation of Waste with Real-Time Monitoring using Iot

The Internet of Things (IoT), as an infrastructure planned for the proposed Smart City concept, offers new opportunities for urban service management. The IoT vision presents promising and cost-effective solutions for massive data collection and analysis, which can be applied to many areas, helping them to operate more efficiently. Normally, one of the most difficult problems in smart cities is the collection of urban waste. To optimize the waste collection logistic procedure, we provide a prototype focused on the field above. In this paper we are proposing a real time waste collection and management, through smart bins, in which the waste is first segregated and collected in dedicated bins which are monitored in real-time on the cloud. Whenever the garbage bins fill, we get an email notification as an alert which is sent to an authorized person. Also, an email alert is sent in case a fire is detected.
