Industrial Bin Level Monitor Kit v5 – Smart Inventory Route Optimiser for Raspberry Pi 5 & ESP32

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Warehouses lose hours navigating aisles to check stock. This kit puts you in the driver’s seat of an intelligent inventory system: six bins, each tracked in real time by an ultrasonic sensor, data streamed to a Raspberry Pi 5 that runs a machine learning route optimizer. You’ll collect the bins that need refilling by the shortest path—just like a smart factory floor.

What You'll Build

An end-to-end industrial monitoring prototype. Six HC-SR04 sensors send fill-level data via ESP32 microcontrollers to a Raspberry Pi 5. A web dashboard visualizes current levels; the ML optimizer then computes a minimum-distance route covering all bins below a threshold, displaying it clearly for a human operator or AGV. The system uses an NVMe SSD for fast logging and replay.

What You'll Learn

• Configure six HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors with ESP32 boards and stream data over MQTT to a central Raspberry Pi 5
• Design a real-time industrial IoT data pipeline with error-checking and timestamped logging
• Apply a travel-distance ML model (nearest-neighbour heuristic) to generate optimal bin collection routes
• Build a Flask or Node-RED dashboard to visualize bin levels, route maps, and historical trends on a local web interface

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

CBSE Class 11–12 students building an informatics project on IoT and data science, B.Tech ECE/EEE teams prototyping for Smart India Hackathon or industrial automation capstones, and ATL Tinkering Lab facilitators who need a ready-made advanced IoT setup. Engineering undergraduates at IITs, NITs, VIT, or BITS pursuing mini-projects in AI-driven logistics will find the route-optimization use case directly relevant.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
