TITLE OF THE PROJECT: “An Initial step to Implement Smart Bins in Chennai Local Trains” ABSTRACT: An everyday journey in a local train drives us into many ideas. Watching out through the window and you see people littering around, with overflowing dustbins inside the train, paved way to sow this idea of clearing the dustbins ,once it is filled by using smart sensor recognition. The dustbins in a train needs to be equipped with a sensor, once it is filled an indicator will indicate the status of the bin filling and this in turn will be emptied in the next nearest station. The nearest station will be always in a standby position to accept the trash from the train dustbin. The process repeats from filling in to getting emptied in a recursive way. The whole system works with the implementation of sensor boards. Though there are existing smart bins, none are available in local trains. This a basic initiative step to install one. The system requires well planned design with both hardware and software combination. A thorough study on how many minutes a train stops and starts, what is the required time to clean the bin if it is filled all need to be calculated exactly, else the thrash will be thrown on the platform. The entire system works with the calculation based on the distance between two coaches. The position of inside and outside bins depends on the distance calculation. Once the train stops, the bin is checked and if it is filled then it is cleared automatically. The data of a dustbin status is maintained and monitored using a cloud database. This is an initial process to save our tracks from litter. If this is successful, next we can implement in the passenger and express trains.
