Problems
- Trash overflows from waste bin (potential penalty)
- Unnecessary truck assignment
- Inefficient truck route
System Overview
- Wireless IoT communication – LoRaWAN (Average 1 km radius coverage ) or NB-IoT (Wireless signal covered in the whole city)
- Detection of overflowing waste bins
- Location of waste bins
- No cable and power installation required
Smart Routing
