Automated Street Lighting and Smart Waste Management

The aim of the paper is the automation in street light and ease of mechanism of waste management and plant watering. This project includes three systems which includes Automatic Street Light system, Smart Waste Management system and Automatic Plant Watering system. Smart Street light is to reduce the power utilization by controlling the light intensity by motion detection. The Smart Waste Management Sytsem which is proposed here is to implement a smarter way of conventional waste management using sensors to collect dustbin fill-level data. The information from bins sent to the Waste management centers using communicating modules. In daily operations related to watering is the most important practice and the most labor-intensive task. Modern watering systems could be effectively used to water plants when they need it. Soil moisture sensor is used for measuring the amount of water present in the soil and according to that the plant watering system will be operated. The entire operation is controlled using Atmega328P microcontroller.
