Ecobot: Autonomous Trash Collection and Segregation System

: The rapid growth of urbanization, economic development and population has led to a significant global garbage crisis, causing severe environmental and health issues. Traditional waste management systems struggle to manage the increasing volume of waste effectively. This paper presents an innovative solution; an autonomous trash collection and segregation system designed to operate within defined areas. Utilizing robotics and machine learning, the system is built around a Raspberry Pi to navigate autonomously, collect garbage and segregate waste efficiently. This system aims to enhance the sustainability and efficiency of waste management practices, aligning with global efforts towards smart cities and technology-driven improvement in quality of life.
