Auto Bin Project

The Auto Bin Project is an Arduino-based system designed to automate the opening of a dust bin's door using an ultrasonic sensor and a servo motor. When dust particles or other objects come close to the sensor, the system automatically opens the dust bin's door.

Features

  • Ultrasonic Sensor: Detects the presence of dust or objects near the bin.
  • Servo Motor: Controls the opening and closing of the dust bin's door.
  • Automatic Operation: Opens the bin door when objects are detected by the sensor.
  • Arduino Integration: Uses Arduino to manage sensor input and motor control.

Components Used

  • Arduino Board: Microcontroller for managing sensor data and controlling the servo motor.
  • Ultrasonic Sensor: Measures distance to detect objects or dust particles.
  • Servo Motor: Opens and closes the dust bin's door based on sensor input.
  • Dust Bin: The container where the automated door mechanism is installed.

How It Works

  1. Sensor Detection: The ultrasonic sensor continuously measures the distance to nearby objects.
  2. Object Detection: When the sensor detects an object or dust particles within a predefined range, it triggers the servo motor.
  3. Door Operation: The servo motor opens the dust bin's door to allow objects to be disposed of.
  4. Automatic Reset: The door closes automatically after a set period or when no objects are detected.
