Abstract

The United Nations (UN) has numerous goals outlined in its charter and subsequent resolutions. One of which is addressing environmental challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. As a response to this call, Centro Escolar University(CEU) lodged the KALINGA program. Part of this program is to study ways the community could improve waste management. This study is a concerted effort to promote sustainable development practices, mitigate the impacts of climate change, protect ecosystems, and promote renewable energy. This developed prototype recognizes and classifies non-biodegradable and biodegradable materials with a 96% accuracy rate. The user-friendly system uses an ultrasonic sensor and image processing.
