Smart Dustbin - Whistle Controlled Dustbin

In this project, a sound sensor will detect the sound intensity of your surroundings and will move an servo motor (open the dustbin) if the sound intensity is above a certain threshold.

Dustbin

Step 2: Connecting Servo Motor

First, I will start with the mechanism to open the lid. In order to open the lid, Glue one end of the popsicle stick to the flat side of the servo's horn. It must be palced near the hinge where the lid is connected to the main can.

Step 3: Programming

Connect the arduino and upload the given program on your arduino uno.

Step 4: Wiring

You can place Arduino, Sound Sensor, Mini Breadboard, and 9 Battery on Dustbin with the help of double tape and Wire the circuit as shown in the picture.

Step 5: Testing

Test your whistle to open the dustbin.
