Abstract

The urinal system, with the automatic watering system (flushing), has been widely applied in several public places in Indonesia. Still, the system sometimes does not meet Indonesian habits, especially for a Muslim, as well as less environmentally friendly. For example, it is not fitted with watering facilities (flushing) to clean vital organs and consider the sufficient (not excessive) volume of water. Another essential function is monitoring the availability of water supply and the urinal itself so that it can help the maintenance with simultaneously monitor the availability. Therefore, this research aims to design an environmentally friendly urinal system. In this study, the design and development of IoT-based flushing automation systems employ HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors, YL-83 as a detector, and ESP8266 wifi module connected to an android-based mobile phone. The urinal flushing automation system is designed with an Arduino Nano Microcontroller capable of detecting someone who will urinate and provide sufficient watering to clean it. The test results are carried out on the effectiveness of distance detection, the adequacy of water discharge, and monitoring of the availability of water. The test results are also compared with a similar type of commercial urinal system. The complete results will be described in the full paper.
