[0001] The present disclosure relates, in general, to waste receptacle assemblies, and more specifically to an automated waste receptacle capable of automatically opening of the waste receptacles and alerting the user to clean debris from the waste receptacle, when the waste receptacle is full of debris.

BACKGROUND
[0002] The background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present disclosure. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed disclosure, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] A waste container is a container for storing waste materials temporarily, and it is made of metal, plastic and other materials. The waste containers include a lids or door for preventing the release of the waste from the container, also the lid prevents bad odours from escaping and hide the waste within the container from view. Additionally, the lid of the waste container prevents contamination to escape from the container.
[0004] Recently, waste containers with a foot operated lid have become commercially available. Such waste containers can include a pedal positioned on the bottom of container. When the pedal is pressed, the waste container opens the lid thus allows a user to place waste into the container, and when the user take off the foot from the pedal, the lid closed automatically. However, this requires touching the shoe or foot on the container, which is not safe especially for kids to touch the container, as there can be bacteria also, and they can infect the kids.
[0005] There are certain kind of waste, such as recyclable waste and non-recyclable waste, both type of waste are disposed in the same container, and it is very difficult to separate the recyclable waste, which can be processed to produce fertilizer. In some areas there more than one waste container are installed to receive items that can be recycled into new products. These containers are sometimes separated into different categories which determine what materials can be inserted into the bin. The contents of the bins are taken to a recycling plant to be processed, which usually takes many days.
[0006] There is, therefore, a need to overcome above mentioned problems of prior arts by providing a waste container which detects the movement of human or waste in the vicinity, and automatically opens the lid of the waste container, and, a waste container for holding the distinct type of waste in separate containers.
