Compology Selects OrCAD for Revolutionary Garbage Sensor System

April 12, 2018 OrCAD PCB Solutions

A key part of Compology’s solution is a sensor device that retrofits onto trash, recycling, and organic waste dumpsters. Initial prototypes of the sensor, used for proof-of-concept purposes, were comprised of mostly off-the-shelf components. As Compology expanded, they needed to redesign the sensor from scratch to make it more commercially viable.

Design Challenge

• Multi-year battery life requirement

• Custom cellular communications and optics

• Lower level control of the hardware

• Compatibility with external design team
