Automated trash collector design

The objective of this paper is to study, analyse and investigate the main contributor of plastic pollution which has become the world major infamous problem nowadays, and to explain our platform design which aim to help in reducing the issue of floating trash. Annually, more than 2 million tonnes of plastics have been tossed to water body and eventually washed away to the sea. Not just living marine organisms become targets and carrier of harmful viruses but some of marine animals suffer a direct mortality after plastic ingestion. Numerous negative impacts of plastic pollution to the environment and the society had been identified. This study shall include the methodology; classification of trash cleaning systems as well as the efforts to tackle this problem. Static and dynamic systems have been categorized to distinguish their effectiveness. As for this paper, the proposed design will be focusing on dynamic system which is fully autonomous. It is a multi-functional design which incorporated with different types of sensors. This paper also emphasizes the novelty and uniqueness of the proposed design as compared to existing ones; in terms of architecture and its functionality.
