After this, the Ultrasonic Transmitter will transmit a burst of8
pulses of ultrasound at 40 KHz. Immediately, the control circuit
in the sensor will change the state of the ECHO pin to
HIGH. This bin stays HIGH until the ultrasound hits an object
and returns to the Ultrasonic Receiver. Based on the time for
which the Echo Pin stays HIGH, you can calculate the distance
between the sensor and the object.

Following are the Merits of proposed work:

 Reduced human labor is involved.
 It elevates the city's outlook.
 Contributes to pollution reduction.
 Effective surveillance.
 Municipalities can oversee and uphold smart city
infrastructure.
 Cost-effective production.
