Dustbin Tracking System

The Dustbin Tracking System is an IoT based system. The device can detect when a dust bin is full and send a notification to a software application on a laptop, which is developed using Python and the Tkinter GUI framework. The software application is responsible for storing and displaying the data associated with each dust bin, including its address, longitude and latitude, and the time when it was full.

Making the device

Assemble following components as given in the circuit diagram.

List of components:

• Arduino UNO R3
• Ultrasonic sensor
• Bluetooth Module HC-05
• Switch x 1
• LED x 2
• Jumper Wires
