Week 10 - Chapter2

This week is the beginning of journal study for the project, i have compose a few journal in my literature review which are referred to below journal:

While below is the composed literature review:

We can comprehend nowadays, the garbage bin frequently being overfilled and sometime the excess trash often places beside the bin where it should not be. These practices may lead to increases of mosquitos breed and insect where later on brings various diseases. [1] Clean Malaysia article state that consistently a normal of 30,000 tons of garbage has been created and the rate of reusing is only 5 percent. Besides that, unveiled by National Ministry of Urban Wellbeing, Housing, and Local Government, these practices influence the air contamination on earth. [1] On the other hand, as stated in Clean Malaysia article, one of Malaysia initiative in tackling the issue is by letting the shopping center leads the way to recycling but internationally speaking, [2] from a Spokesman-Review article written by Will Campbell, the sorting of mix recycle item has been the top problem face by the modern recycling system.

[3] This is a project report inscribe by The Khee Leong, a student from University Tunku Abdul Rahman. From the report written, the writer indicates that there is a separation of container process, this is almost similar from sorting system that would be develop for the Sorting and Monitoring of Recycle Item with IOT. On top of that, the writer tells that servo motor is the most suitable used for this purpose because servo is an automated system if else, a mechanism which adjust itself during continued operation through feedback. Moreover, the writer project needs an accurate mechanism to separate the container, thus the servo motor is easy to be control. Literally speaking, Sorting and Monitoring of Recycle Item with IOT will be using similar motor for the sorting mechanism as it proven to be functional.

[4] This is a research done by Mustafa and Ku Azir from Universiti Malaysia Perlis. In general, waste management is an activity to handle or administer waste from beginning until its final disposal. This activity have is currently handled by using a manual eye monitoring where the worker has to check frequently the waste quantity. Without a doubt every time this activity is happening, contamination will occur to the person. By using a more systematic waste monitoring technology, work can be done more efficiently. In response to this reason, they research and build a project of monitoring system using ultrasonic sensor and at the same time introduce the function of IOT.

Conclusion: So base on this 3 input, i manage to decide which technical sensor and type of monitoring sensor to be use for the project. It also give strong reason for me to proceed with the project
