WasteFlow is a learning-based vision system developed to analyze waste flow. Today, the low recycling rate can be explained by the low financial incentive to recycle. By identifying the type of waste, we can gain a better understanding of its value and optimize the recycling process. Unfortunately, current solutions are expensive and focused on the final sorting step. Due to data gaps throughout the cycle, they fail to provide a comprehensive understanding of the processes involved and their respective KPIs. Our affordable and user-friendly service is designed to be accessible to all actors in the recycling cycle. By empowering them with the necessary tools, we strive to increase sorted material's purity, maximize existing system performance, and enhance recycling energy efficiency.
