Smart compost monitoring powered by AI, an Arduino Uno Q, and sensors — built by four students who refuse to let waste be a problem.
About Us
Hi, we are the Trash Titans! We are students in grade 5 and 6 who are passionate about coding and using technology to solve real-world problems. We believe smart systems and AI can completely change how we handle waste.
What We Do
We built a smart compost monitoring system using an Arduino Uno Q, AI, and sensors. Our system keeps compost healthy and sends real-time alerts when something's wrong.
Our hardware core — an Arduino Uno Q reads live moisture, temperature, and other compost data and streams it in real time.
Artificial intelligence interprets sensor readings to detect unhealthy compost conditions before they become a problem.
Scan the bin's QR code to instantly know whether it belongs in the compost — no guessing required.
Real-time moisture tracking sends an alert if the compost is too dry or too wet, keeping it in the perfect zone.
Instant notifications fire if the wrong item is added or if conditions drift outside healthy parameters.
Less food waste, better compost quality, and a healthier planet — powered by student ingenuity and cutting-edge tech.
Full AI Smart System
A full AI-powered smart waste management platform that combines QR scanning, Edge Impulse AI, compost monitoring, servo motor automation, live dashboards, and smart alerts.
Users sign into the Trash Titans web app with a secure account.
The USB webcam scans a QR code attached to the waste item.
The JSON database identifies whether the waste is compost, recycle, garbage, or hazardous.
The moisture sensor activates and Edge Impulse AI predicts healthy, dry, or too wet compost.
The SG90 servo motor rotates the sorting flap automatically.
Green, yellow, and red LEDs display live compost conditions.
The dashboard updates instantly with waste statistics and AI predictions.
Automatic email alerts are sent if compost becomes too dry, too wet, or hazardous waste is detected.
Main controller powering the entire smart waste management system.
Scans QR codes and identifies waste instantly.
Detects compost health and moisture conditions in real time.
Automatically rotates the waste sorting flap.
Predicts healthy, dry, or too wet compost conditions.
Sends email alerts and activates LEDs and buzzer warnings.
