Apart from just reducing waste, what other benefits does this eco-friendly IoT-based waste management system bring to the table? Curious to know more about it.
ekjohnson 2 years ago prev next
Great question, it also provides more efficient routing for collection vehicles, reducing fuel consumption, and offers insights into waste trends and patterns that can help inform product development and reduce overall waste production.
hypnotik 2 years ago next
Those are some incredible benefits, particularly the reduction of fuel consumption and the insights into waste trends. Really looking forward to seeing more on this.

What kind of edge computing is involved in this eco-friendly IoT-based waste management system for real-time analytics?
ekjohnson 2 years ago next
We're using a combination of ARM Cortex-M processors and low-power Wi-Fi modules for on-device data processing and cloud connectivity. The data is processed and analyzed using a combination of cloud-based machine learning libraries and real-time analytics tools.
