Automated Garbage Collection Rover

Now-a-days, Collecting and segregating of waste has become one among the greatest challenging task for municipal corporations, all around the globe. An exponential rise in population, there's an increased production of waste, and also an enormous amount of litter consisting of plastic, paper, and other such products carelessly thrown about and scattered publicly. No one is paying attention to surrounding environmental problems. One of the major issues is garbage collection. To deal with this problem we come up with a "Robotic Vehicle for Garbage Collection". Robot is able to perform human tasks of collecting garbage. In this project, we are designing a robot which is capable of collecting the waste products from various places like footpaths, parks, schools & colleges etc. This robot is capable for detection of objects in random movement. The main controller of this project is Raspberry Pi 3B. The robot is built on a wooden base of size 50x40 cm which is powered by battery of 12V. The movement of robotic vehicle is controlled by programming the Arduino. After detecting the objects, the robot senses by webcam & followed by Image processing, the object gets collected with the robotic arm and place into the container. The robot keeps collecting the waste until it reaches certain height within the bin. Once the bin is full then it is notified to the operator. This robotic vehicle is working automatically and saves the human power.

This paper presents the ReMaster project currently under development at POLITEHNICA University of Bucharest. This project was inspired by the Eurobot 2007 contest and aims to develop a commercial autonomous service robot with social interaction abilities. The robot must be able to recognize and collect waste in office-like environments. The main contribution so far is the design and implementation of the stereoscopic vision system which has been tested with good results. Further more, the robot will be able to generate a 3-dimensional virtual map of the environment that is explored and to easily interface with humans and other robots.

Now-a-days, management of waste from its collection to dumping and disruption has become one of the greatest challenging and arduous chore for municipal corporations, all around the globe. To make this tedious job facile, a new concept of Smart Dustbin has been taken into consideration for Smart buildings, hospitals, schools and railway stations. The Smart garbage collector thought is an advancement of traditional garbage collector by levitating it to become smart inculcating sensors and some form of logics. This smart collector is a revolutionary idea of application of line following garbage car and pole fixed garbage part on predesigned locomotive path. The fixed bin makes use of ultrasonic sensors for level of garbage detection and updates the coeval level of the bin to the garbage car, using RF Module. This is thereby a fully automated system, making small contribution towards the theme of Clean India Green India.

Increased waste levels have made it important for proper waste management systems and procedures. Now India day is not working well in the field of environmental cleanup, it means collecting all the waste, putting it away and separating for recycling process. Dumping of garbage in local areas creates polluting conditions. It can cause many bad diseases in humans and can cause air, water, and land pollution. It also contributes to global warming. The program consists of two modules, the first module contains a pi cam with tensor flow software, and the second module contains Robotic Arm and, Robotic chase to pick up trash and the trash can be separated afterwards. The main part or purpose of this work is a clean and tidy environment by separating the waste for Reusability process. The project supports waste management and helps to control global warming, reduces pollution and decrease workers time and work. This project supports the goal of a clean swatch bharat. This project is mainly designed to clean the parks and the ground so that we can clean large area to protect our environment.

Pollution is a serious issue that goes alarming every now and then. Pollution increases subsequently with increase in population. Garbage has to be strictly discarded to avoid pollution. Here on emphasizing land pollution, "Garbage Collecting Robot" can clean up all the garbages that are thrown on the roads using Raspberry Pi. This robot will be built on a metallic base and powered by a battery and contains a Pi cam to segregate wastes on image processing. The bot will contain a sensor for obstacle detection and hence has a good path determination. On implementation, manual requirement can be avoided and thus prevents people from sanitary issues.

This work proposed to construct a mobile device which would remove waste materials such as leaves, bottles, polyethylene, etc. which we usually see disrupting the water flow in roadside drains. The system was developed in the context of solving one of the most common problems of our country which is drain clogging. Our system is a four-wheeled robot attached with a wiper motor for moving on the drains. The device also consists of a chain-sprocket based grabber fitted with a fixed number of claws to pick up the waste material. The claws will transfer the collected waste into a deposit box and from there it will be disposed to the desired location utilizing a conveyor system. Chain sprocket mechanism has been utilized in waste grabber and also for moving wheels. The robot can be controlled both manual and automatic dictation through Bluetooth communication.

Aim/Objectives: The primary aim is to introduce a way in which garbage could be collected and disposed efficiently; To analyze the problem of garbage disposal at a school, restaurant, office, hotel, production plant or any other suitable location; To design and develop a system for solving the problem; To test and maintain the implemented system. Method: Our project is divided into two main parts. We are designing a system that collects garbage automatically through line. For which we are designing an arena so that the machine will follow the specific path and also manually by using Arduino and Bluetooth module. The machine can be controlled by software which will give command to the robotic jaw to collect the stationary waste. It also has the characteristic to get controlled by voice command which makes the robot to collect the garbage according to the given command. Findings: We have designed a semi-autonomous garbage collector robot which can do multiple functions. This robot has one robotic arm in which it can pick the garbage and dispense it in main basket attached to the robot. The camera placed on robot helps the administrator to remotely monitor the robot while collecting garbage. The prototype has an electronic mechanism by which the robot can dispense it collected garbage to the dispensing point. This robot has installed batteries in which there is no fuel or electricity required to complete the operation.

The recycling of coarse waste such as construction and demolition waste (CDW), bulky waste, etc., is a process that is currently performed mechanically and manually. Unlike packaging waste, commercial waste and the like, which is usually cut or shredded into small pieces and then automatically separated and sorted on conveyor belt-based systems, coarse waste is separated by specialized personnel using wheel loaders, cranes or excavators. This paper presents the concept of a robotic system designed to autonomously separate recyclable coarse materials from bulky waste, demolition and construction waste, etc. The proposed solution explicitly uses existing heavy equipment (e.g., an excavator currently in use on-site) rather than developing a robot from scratch. A particular focus is set on the sensory system options used to identify and classify waste objects.
