Design of Waste Management System Using QR Code for Effective Management in Wastebank

Waste management is one of the problems faced in almost every city in Indonesia. One way to manage waste is through the waste bank. The business process of a waste bank is similar to a bank, but it is processed in the form of inorganic waste that has been sorted. In general, data management in waste banks is still conventional but the others have used of web-based or mobile technology. But in this way there are still some weaknesses such as the the time needed to input the collected waste data because the data cannot be directly entered into the system. In addition it can occur inaccurately entered data. The proposed method is using the QR code for the waste management system. In this method, admin only need to scan the QR code label attached on the waste bin stored above the weighing device using a smartphone camera. With this system QR scanner application based on mobile can be synchronized automatically with anroid smartphone. Admin then input the weight of the waste that is weighed and will be stored in the database. In this way the data input process can be faster and with the use of QR code, more data can be stored.
