Abstract

Recently due to development of IT technology, ideas and technology that blend with environment have evolved. This technology can help people's living environment and in the future it is an essential component of the connected society. In this paper, we propose WiT(WiFI Trashcan) which takes advantage of the IT technology fusion and environmental factors at the same time to create a more pleasant environment. WiT provides a free WiFi when trash is disposed in the trash can. WiT detects whether a user disposes trash, determines the volume of the trash and provides free WiFi. To detect trash we use ultrasonic sensor and trash weight is measured by using weight sensor. Also by using Phython programming the measured sensor value is transmitted to Raspberry Pie and WiFi delivery time is determined. We used Arduino and Raspberry Pi to design and implement WiT.

최근 IT기술의 발전에 힘입어 사람이 생활하는 환경에 IT기술들이 스며들고, 환경적 요소와 융합하는 아이디어와 기술들이 나날이 발전하고 있다. 이러한 기술들은 사람들의 생활환경에 도움을 주는 역할을 하고 있으며, 앞으로의 초연결사회의 필수 구성 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 IT기술을 환경적 요소와 융합하여 활용하는 동시에 더욱 쾌적한 환경을 만들 수 있는 WiT(WiFi Trashcan)를 제안한다. WiT는 쓰레기통에 쓰레기를 넣으면 WiFi를 무료로 제공해주는 쓰레기통이다. WiFi와 Trash-can을 합성한 WiT(WiFi Trashcan)는 사람이 쓰레기를 넣었을 때, 투입 여부 및 부피를 감지하여 쓰레기를 버린 사용자에게 WiFi를 무료로 제공해주는 시스템이다. 쓰레기를 감지하기 위해 초음파 센서를 사용하고, 쓰레기의 무게를 측정하기 위해 무게 센서를 사용한다. 그리고 파이썬 프로그래밍을 통해 측정된 센서 값을 라즈베리파이에 전송하여, WiFi 제공시간을 결정한다. WiT는 아두이노와 라즈베리파이를 활용하여 설계 및 구현되었다.
