The increasing amount of waste generated each year necessitates immediate action to address and resolve this problem. This research establishes a small-scale recycling automatic system that allows us to detect objects based on different materials. The system is known as the Smart Object Detector for Small-Scale Recycling Automation System. Three types of objects, paper, metal, and plastic will be used to test the capability of the proposed system. The system will be equipped with the IR sensor, the capacitive proximity sensor, and the inductive proximity sensor. The conveyor belt is built, a servomotor is used to move the conveyor belt, and the containers are developed as part of a small-scale recycling automatic system conveyor system. The proposed smart object detector for a small-scale recycling automation system is found to be reliable for detecting, identifying, and segregating the object for different materials.
