Inspired by the Worlds Deepest Bin at www.thefuntheory.com. The idea is to encourage people to recycle by making it fun. This is a small 20 inch high prototype to test the electronics before working on a full size outdoor model.

It uses a Parallax PIR passive infrared sensor to detect when an object is tossed in and a Parallax Propeller microcontroller to process the signal and generate the sound. The final model will have more elaborate sound effects that will be fun, especially for kids.
