Modern technologies are developing rapidly, and things appear in our life that we could not have thought of a couple of years ago. Robot vacuum cleaners, "smart" refrigerators and other high-tech assistants are already firmly entrenched in our lives. As for the "smart" waste bins, they are significantly different from their simple predecessors and can greatly simplify our lives.

Main characteristics
The touch-sensitive kitchen bucket can be a great substitute for pedal-operated buckets. The automatic bucket will last a long time without requiring much maintenance. The model with an opening sensor does not get dirty so quickly, since you do not touch it with your hands, which happens with ordinary buckets. The option with an opening lid is especially good for a family with a child, as you will not come into contact with the surface of the bucket, where germs may be.
The sensor works at a distance of about 15 mm.

Basically, these models run on batteries that will need to be replaced periodically. However, you can find a model that runs on AC or battery power. It is also important to monitor the state of the sensor, on which the operation of the entire structure depends. If the sensor becomes dirty, its functionality will be reduced, and as a result, this can lead to damage to the product.
Such buckets have several modes of operation, the main ones of which are:
- rest mode - the bucket just stands with the lid closed;
- operating mode - the container opens for a short period of time;
- long-term use mode - this mode is necessary when doing something over the bucket, for example, peeling potatoes.
