About The Project

Aim

To control a servo motor using Arduino and simulate the opening and closing of a dustbin lid.

Components Required

• Arduino Uno
• SG90 Servo Motor
• Jumper Wires
• USB Cable

Theory

A servo motor is a special motor that can rotate to a specific angle. In this project, the servo motor acts as the lid of a smart dustbin. The Arduino sends signals to the servo motor to move it between 0° (closed position) and 90° (open position).

Working

1. When the Arduino starts, the servo motor is set to 0°, representing the closed lid.
2. The servo then rotates to 90°, representing the open lid.
3. After 2 seconds, it returns to 0°.
4. This process repeats continuously
