Smart River Waste Lifter System is an environmental innovation prototype developed to address the issue of floating waste accumulation in rivers and drainage systems. Accumulated waste may block water flow, contribute to flash floods, and negatively affect environmental cleanliness. This project uses Arduino UNO, an ultrasonic sensor, and an automated lifting mechanism to detect and collect floating waste automatically. When connected to a power source, the ultrasonic sensor detects the waste level and sends signals to the Arduino system, which activates the motor-driven lifting mechanism. The prototype is designed as a low-cost and environmentally friendly solution suitable for educational purposes and future environmental applications. This innovation helps reduce manual cleaning, improves hygiene, and promotes sustainable waste management. The system also has potential for future development in smart drainage and river maintenance technologies.
