Abstract

Trashcans are the basic unit in the garbage-collecting procedure. This paper proposes an intelligent trashcan with flexible features, which is associated with a smart device application. The trashcan is able to detect RFID tags to decide whether to open its lid or not. The trashcan is also capable of moving around when it receives instructions from the remote application, and it has the ability to move according to a planned path. Different settings of the smart trashcan can be configured via the remote application. The proposed system has been implemented, and it is shown that the proposal is applicable.
