Conventional dustbins require the user to touch them with your hand or foot to open, which is both inconvenient and unhygienic. This automatic opening dustbin, based on infrared technology, solves this problem. Simply wave your hand approximately 10cm above the infrared panel and the lid will open automatically, dispose of the rubbish and within a few seconds, it will close again automatically. The automatic opening and closing control system consists of a computer chip, an infrared detecting device, a mechanical transmitting device and an electrical drive system. It is a high-performance device, which is low in energy consumption and will give a long service life.
