Abstract
Due to an upsurge in population, every year about 60 million tons of trash is generated. The improper organization of city Municipal Corporation and lack of awareness programs to the citizen has led the monitoring of garbage become a national issue. Mahatma Gandhi's vision of Clean India has led to the initiation of Indian central government’s ambitious project to make India a clean country “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” aims to teach citizens to reduce waste generation, eliminate open defecation and improve solid waste management. To maintain an ingenious living, tidiness is necessary and cleanliness begins with proper monitoring of waste trash, hence this work aims to optimize garbage waste management by the design of a smart garbage monitoring system for “Smart City” based on Internet of Things (IoT). The system will help to minimize the garbage disposal problem by automatically monitoring the garbage bins and informing the municipal corporation about the level of garbage collected. Street lights are a major requirement in today’s life for safety purposes. In today’s busy life, no one bothers to switch off the lights when not required. The street lighting is one of the largest energy expenses for a city. This work aims to design an automatic street light control system using simple timing information that will minimize power consumption and manpower.
