I have a little dog who can NOT stay out of the waste baskets. She's a sweet, wonderful little dog in all other aspects, so please, no mean/anti-dog comments. I've tried all sorts of things, including a good whack when catching her in the act. I really think it's a compulsion for my aptly named "Confetti".
What I want is a battery powered circuit that:
I have several wastebaskets to cover, so I need to keep this as inexpensive as possible. Anything Arduino-based Arduino is not a good option.
I'd appreciate some suggestions. Thanks for your time and consideration.
What I want is a battery powered circuit that:
- detects her presence
- Waits briefly then rechecks (I don't want this thing going off every time I toss something in the trash!)
- If she's still there on the second check, triggers a loud piezo screecher.
- Shuts the screecher off after 10 or 15 seconds and resets the circuit.
