Abstract

In this paper, a solar-assisted cloud-enabled intelligent mini refrigerator has been proposed for the utilization of the wasteover food and to avoid food wastage. With the help of this uniquely proposed solution, the food which is leftover or not being consumed in the restaurants, societies, flats, hostels, and colleges can now be provided to the needy people. This solution will provide the availability of the food to the cloud-enabled app as soon as the food is detected in the smart refrigerator. So, the NGOs and community that work for the poverty-stricken people around a specific part of the country can keep track of the waste food in the various parts of the locality through the developed app and can judiciously distribute the same.
