This study discusses the issue of solid waste management among school pupils, which remains unsatisfactory despite various awareness campaigns being carried out. To address this problem, an innovation known as Funbin – Throw & Earn was developed by combining automation technology and a reward element to increase pupils’ motivation to dispose of waste correctly. This system uses Arduino, an ultrasonic sensor, a servo motor, LED lights, a speaker, and QR code scanning through the PictoBlox application. Funbin provides immediate visual and audio feedback, as well as reward points. The findings show a 90% detection effectiveness rate, along with an increase in pupils’ interest and involvement.
