Voice Controlled Automatic Dustbin with Garbage Level Sensing

Voice Controlled Automatic Dustbin (VCAD) is a robotic dustbin that is controlled by providing specific voice commands by the user. The speech is received by the microphone of the android device and is processed by the voice module. When the instruction is recognized by the robot, then voice module sends a command message to the robot's micro-controller. The micro-controller analyses the message and takes appropriate actions. When garbage is detected by the sensor on the dustbin, it sends a command message to the dustbin's micro-controller. The micro-controller analyses the message and sends the command to the servo motor to opens the lid of the dustbin. The objective of this paper is to design a mobile dustbin which is controlled through a smart-phone that seeks for serving the old age and incapable people.
