That's a fun little project but it'll never work in the real world. After the collectors empty the bins, they never set them down gently in the original spot (almost always it ends up a few feet away, sometimes knocked over on a side).

Maybe it's different where the author lives.

Has anyone hacked a "smart" garbage can boot that can self-right the bin and find its way around like an autonomous luggage? (Bonus points if it can somehow unlock the bin for you and detect and ward off bears and other animals).
