Arduino Based Garbage Collector with Wireless Controller and Monitoring System for Water Waste

Thesis (M.A.) from the year 2019 in the subject Engineering - Computer Engineering, grade: 1.00, , language: English, abstract: Wastes which are thrown on water areas are the main causes of water pollution. It greatly impacts the life on water and the place it is surrounding. People going on water to collect wastes can sometimes be dangerous and risky for their health. This study helps clean and collects wastes on water areas by using a wireless controlled drone-like prototype. This prototype which has a conveyor belt in front of it will collect the trash it encounters. The aim of this study is to collect the wastes on water without risking the health of a person. The present design of this prototype is to minimize human effort on manual picking of wastes. This study uses an Agile Method using scrum that consists of 40 stories designated to their corresponding sprints. This serve as a guide for the proponents to create the prototype properly. There are also 82 test cases for every feature of the prototype that will be tested, and the results are passed or failed. These test cases result to 92.68% rate of passed and a 7.32% rate of failed with only small severity. This means that the proposed performance and specifications of the prototype are produced.
