## Inspiration

Commuting can be unpleasant, especially early in the morning when you are tired and want to sleep. With a GPS based alarm you can safely sleep on the bus/train knowing you will not miss your stop.

Garbage in bins around cities are constantly overflowing. Our goal was to create a system that better allocates time and resources to help prevent this problem, while also positively impacting the environment.

## What it does

Urbins provides a live monitoring web application that displays the live capacity of both garbage and recycling compartments using ultrasonic sensors. This functionality can be seen inside the prototype garbage bin. The bin uses a cell phone camera to send an image to the custom learning model built with IBM Watson. The results from the Watson model is used to classify each object placed in the bin so that it can be sorted into either garbage or recycling. Based on the classification, the Android application controls the V-shaped platform using a servo motor to tilt the platform and drop the item into it's correct bin. Once a garbage/recycling bin nears full-capacity, STDlib is used to notify city workers via SMS that bins at a given address are full.

Machine learning is applied when an object cannot be classified. When this happens, the image of the object is sent via STDlib to Slack. Along with the image, response buttons are displayed in Slack, which allows a city worker to manually classify the item. Once a selection is made, the new classification is used to further train the Watson model. This updated model is then used by all the connected smart garbage bins, allowing for all the bins to learn.

## Challenges we ran into

Integrating all components

Learning to use IBM Watson

Providing the set of images for IBM Watson (Needed to be a zip file containing at least 10 photos to update the model)

## Accomplishments that we're proud of

## Inspiration

Human beings are social creatures and each of us is different. Therefore, there is no specific amount of time designated to be spent on social media, or the frequency by which one checks their phone for updates. Rather, it has to do with the impact time spent on social media has on your mood, self-image, fear of missing out, being distracted from work, and other aspects of your life.

How you see yourself determines the state of your happiness and success. You are who you think you are, period. The beliefs you have about yourself are the source of your behavior and your results in life. The beautiful thing is that you can change and choose what you believe. And by changing those long-lasting thoughts, you were once so certain about, you change everything.

Therefore, we have built **Social Climate** which helps you to grow your self-esteem and start feeling positive about yourself again.

## What it does

1. Unleash your power doing some amazing powerful exercises
2. Discover your potential by knowing who you really are by listening to the podcast.
3. Know the power of your beliefs and how your reality is built upon them by learning some facts, reading articles, and listening to a podcast about self-esteem and positivity
4. Talk to our assistive chatbot to uplift your mood by asking for some jokes, quotes, games, etc.
5. See what other people do to boost their self-esteem
6. Play Matrix, a game that takes hold of your attention and boosts positive thoughts.
