The problem
Collection trucks follow fixed routes, visiting empty bins while others overflow.
What to build
Create a sensor and routing prototype that reports fill levels and plans efficient collection routes for the day.
Success looks like
Fewer kilometres driven for the same bins in a simulation and alerts for overflow before it happens.
Suggested technologies
- Ultrasonic sensors
- LoRaWAN
- Vehicle routing
- Dashboards
- Low-power design
