An AI-driven, sensor-based smart waste management system designed to monitor, segregate, and manage waste automatically, reducing manual effort and promoting sustainability.
- 📏 Real-time waste level detection using ultrasonic sensors
- 🔄 Automated segregation of wet and dry waste using servo-controlled bins
- 🔔 Smart notifications when bins are full or near capacity
- ⚡ Energy-efficient design with low power consumption
- 🌐 IoT-enabled monitoring via Wi-Fi (ESP8266/NodeMCU)
- 🧼 Cleaner, more hygienic urban and residential environments
