A

A new “smart bin” could mean the end

of environment-conscious families spending

hours sorting tins, cartons, bottles, and cardboard for recycling.

The invention, which can help sort rubbish into recycling categories without

needing people to operate. It is being trialed in Poland and is set to go on sale in

UK within a few years.

The bin, designed by start-up company Bin.E, recognizes different type of waste

via a system positioned inside the bin which uses sensors, image recognition and

artificial intelligence. Once waste is

placed inside, the camera and sensor identify

its type and place it in one of the smaller bins. Then it compresses the waste so it

occupies less space.

It is thought that the bin could be stocked by department stores such as John Lewis,

which said it is introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins. Matt Thomas, a buyer

at John Lewis, gave us the reason, “We’ve recently seen a jump in specialist bins

sales, with a 25 percent increase in the last few months alone. We have noticed our

customers are becoming more and more focused on sustainability. In response to this

demand, we are really excited to introduce a smart bin this autumn/winter

season-designed to make recycling more efficient and functional for the everyday

home."

Bin. E’s official release on the market will take place in 2018. However, at first

only a larger version designed for offices will be available. The office bin will sell

at £ 430 while customers will need to pay a £ 107 subscription fee for an accompanying

smartphone app, which hooks them up with collection services. A spokesman at Bin. E

said that home version of the bin will be cheaper and will not include a monthly payment.

They added: “After the office version, we plan to create an outdoor version and

later the home version. We decided to go for the outdoor version for public areas first

because it is more difficult to organize an efficient waste segregating system than

in our homes.” 百度文库 - 让每个人平等地提升自我
