Abstract: ABSTRACT TITLE OF THE INVENTION: Development of a smart I motorized all-in-one biomedical waste bin to enhance biomedical waste segregation and management among oral and health care professionals The present invention relates to a smart I motorized all-in-one biomedical waste bin designed for enhanced chairside segregation among oral and healthcare professionals. The system features a 4-in-1 carousel mechanism divided into mandatory color-coded compartments (Yellow, Red, White, and Blue) in accordance with updated BMWM Rules. A dual-motor assembly, controlled by a microcontroller, executes 360-degree carousel rotation and 180-degree lid opening upon sensor-based user selection, enabling fully touchless waste disposal. Integrated ultrasonic sensors monitor fill levels in realtime, providing automated alerts and locking mechanisms when any compartment reaches 314th capacity or exceeds the 24-hour emptying window. The invention provides a compact, hygienic, and intelligent solution for point-of-care waste management, reducing the risk of infection and occupational injuries while ensuring full regulatory compliance
