AI-Powered Waste Trackers

The challenge is enormous

The Binit household waste tracker is an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered solution for placement at the kitchen garbage as a way to help inhabitants quickly identify where their refuse should go. The device features a camera vision and sensor technology that's used for scanning waste before letting the person know whether it's garbage or recycling. The system makes use of large language models (LLMs) like OpenAI GPT-3 to recognize items as quickly as possible.

The Binit household waste tracker is reported by the brand to be 98% accurate in recognizing different trash types and could help to divert more garbage from the landfill. The unit works with the accompanying smartphone app that can be used for tracking trash and encouraging the user to reduce their consumption.
