GarbageBot: the selective robotic garbage can

GarbageBot is a robotic garbage can invented by Osaka University and Mitsubishi. Its eyes contain laser recognition technology which allows it to separate waste: up to six different types of plastic. Because GarbageBot will separate more than plastic to then be recycled, this will also enable reductions in CO2 emissions. This project is supported by the Minister of Economy and Finance of Japan. A robot that is quicker, more efficient and environmentally-friendly. What more could you ask for?
