I am an MCT student from Howest in Kortrijk, Belgium. My project is a Smart garbage using a Raspberry Pi 4. Its purpose is to easily keep track of how much trash is produced over a period of time. When the bin is full, the garbage collector can be notified. The smart trash can is intended for city staff/businesses who can […]
For my first project, I will make an alcohol lock with a Raspberry Pi. Short: The alcohol gas sensor will detect the percentage of alcohol in your breath and then decides if you’re safe to drive the car or not. If so, then the starter of the car will be enabled. The times and percentages
