Automatic trash bin, powered by Arduino & XOD

Hi guys, I have made some interesting project using XOD - trash bin with automatic cap!
You can watch all process of making in the video: https://youtu.be/KHysNei2bq8
Some information:
★ Pass your hand to open the cap
★ Cap will not close while your hand is above the sensor
★ Cap will close some time after you remove your hand
★ (Arduino IDE sketch) Energy saving algorithm and hardware modifications allow this bin be in standby mode almost a year on 3 AA batteries!
