Automatic Waste Segregator Bin Using Robotic Arm

Abstract

This research aims to design an automatic segregator bin which can segregate the waste at source that helps in reducing the time taken for processing, and the segregation work done for large amounts of waste in the later stages. It includes different partitions for collection of different waste using sensors, with a LCD display which updates the status of the bin. The bin uses a robotic arm for picking and placing of waste, also defines the path to be taken after waste detection around the bin. This robot can be useful at places like offices, apartments, shopping malls, parks etc. This system will be useful in making waste management in smart cities automated.
