Abstract: Waste management is a significant challenge faced by both developing and advanced countries. It involves three main entities: users who generate waste, waste collectors and city administration, and stakeholders. A smart waste management system is crucial to notify users in real-time about waste status and keep stakeholders informed about the type and quantity of waste. The increasing human population and urbanization have led to an increase in waste, causing unhygienic environments. To address this issue, an Automatic Waste Segregator system has been developed to separate waste into three categories: wet, dry, and metallic. This system is not only cost-efficient but also productive in waste management. Sensors detect waste and segregate it into designated bins, with regular updates on waste disposal amount on the server.
