Abstract: This paper presents the development and implementation of an Arduino-based Robotic bin designed to enhance waste management efficiency. The Robotic bin leverages various components, including an ultrasonic sensor for level detection, an Arduino Nano microcontroller, a servo motor for lid automation, and various other supporting components such as jumper wires, and an ultrasonic sensor. The system is programmed to detect the presence of waste, automatically open the lid, and monitor the fill level in real time. The Robotic bin aims to promote hygienic practices by minimizing human contact, thereby mitigating health risks and providing significant assistance to individuals with disabilities who may have difficulty opening traditional dustbins. Additionally, using the Arduino Nano microcontroller and open-source software facilitates easy customization and scalability. Field tests demonstrate the system's reliability, accuracy, and potential for widespread application in urban waste management, making it a viable solution for smart city initiatives.
