Summary:
The current collection of second-hand clothes containers that Cáritas has distributed throughout the Community of Madrid presents some inefficiencies. Through the remotely monitoring of these containers, this project intends to address and reduce them. To do this, a study of the different alternatives on the market is carried out and a prototype is developed to check the functionality of the system. The system is composed of three different parts: a hardware or device composed of an ultrasound sensor that sends the free capacity of the container through the communications network of Sigfox to its own back-end. By creating a callback this message is redirected to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform where it is processed, stored and displayed. In addition, the user can know the capacity of the containers through a web application or front-end and create optimized routes based on this information.
