IOT trash is an experiment in embedding smart technology in junk to give it more value. It questions whether we can revalue useless objects using internet of things technology. In the experiments I have chosen three objects which I embed and Arduino Yun and control it using API data from sources such as twitter and bio mechanical data.

The 'Tweeting Buddha' is connected to the twitter API and responds to trending topics according to your interests. In the project scenario the Buddha flashes when the characters favourite football team scores. 

The three object chosen included a Buddha, a nodding dog and a Maneki Neko cat. Each responds to different APi and other data sources.
