Proposal of a LoRaWAN-based IoT System for Food Waste Management

Waste management is one of the main concerns with our environment which impacts the health of our society. A significant amount of waste disposed by people are organic material. Kitchen wastes like food scraps disposed by families and restaurants, are becoming in large amounts and the natural capacity of the environment cannot assimilate them. Therefore, construction of waste management systems is needed. Internet of Things (IoT) and technological development can be used for different solutions in waste management. In this paper, we have proposed a low cost food waste management system, capable to convert food wastes to compost. To make the management system, safe, efficient, and less time consuming, we propose to use a LoRaWAN-based IoT approach

An Integrated System of Robot, SmartBox and RFID as an Approach for Internet of Things

Internet of Things (IoT) allows the interconnection of smart objects, such as robots, wireless sensors, and of human beings. Object recognition is a key unresolved challenge for robotics, but an Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) or Quick Response Code (QR codes) can help in solving this problem. IoT proposes a new way of object recognition. By making objects smart and connected, robots do not need to identify objects around them since objects automatically identify themselves to robots. In this work, we propose and implement an integrated system of robots, Smart Box and RFID as an approach for IoT. In our system, robot can connect with other things in IoT and can take useful information for solving different tasks
