The model sends a message to the vehicle drivers soon after the trash is filled in it. The vehicle drivers then fill the trash from the model into their vehicles and go. A camera is installed in the bin. If the bin is misused during its use, it sends a message to the chief officials.
The model is environment friendly. The work of workers and vehicles get reduced with its use. Cleanliness can also be maintained opined Professor Navin B M. College Principal Dr Mohandas Bhat suggested preparing a model that segregates plastic from metal.
