1. Introduction
• Waste management is the big issue globally and it needs serious attention. There is no proper
management of waste and garbage in rural and urban area in India, which may cause threat to
health security, hygiene, human safety and wild life safety.
• Manual garbage collection and waste management is the good source to generate employment
but there are some issues associated with it, like some time there is unavailability of manual
labor for days such as in maintaining railway tracks. There is a big concern of human safety when
harmful gases exist.
• In order to understand the need for a compact, cost effective and scalable system, and before
diving in to provide our own solution, We have designed a semi-autonomous garbage collector
robot which can do multiple functions. This robot has one robotic arm in which it can pick the
garbage and dispense it in main basket attached to the robot.

2. Abstract
• The primary aim is to introduce a way in which garbage could be
collected and disposed efficiently.
• To analyze the problem of garbage disposal at a school, restaurant,
office, hotel, production plant or any other suitable location.
• To design and develop a system for solving the problem.
• To test and maintain the implemented system.

3. Methodology
• Our project is divided into two main parts. We are designing a
system that collects garbage automatically through line.
• For which we are designing an arena so that the machine will
follow the specific path and also manually by using Arduino and
Bluetooth module.
• The machine can be controlled by software which will give
command to the robotic jaw to collect the stationary waste.
• It also has the characteristic to get controlled by voice
command which makes the robot to collect the garbage
according to the given command.
