In addition, the solution can be implemented in households and co-operate spaces to produce products that can be 3D printed. false en e-waste_lights_team2.PNG For a video tutorial ,check step 6. none The Android app is linked to the smart bin using WIFI or Bluetooth. It collects waste data, contains fun facts to educate people about recycling and waste sorting. To motivate people to keep on sorting their waste, the app also shows you how much money you have accumulated. The smart bin, is linked to the app . To create the bin, motors and 4 ultrasonic sensors were used for motion detection, to detect when a user is inserting waste. The board (recyclable wood) was laser cut to divide the waste compartments accordingly. Recycle plastics to produce PETG filament for 3D printing. The street light was 3D printed for 10hrs. The PETG obtained from recycled material will be used to 3D print the lights. To complete assembly of the street light consisted of solar panel, battery, a pole (recyclable wood) and a dark sensor.
