- Emma Keeling meets Peter Hedley and the team at Recycleye, a London-based AI company bringing advanced machine learning to the global waste management industry. Hedley and co-founder Peter Dewulf are former Imperial College London students turned European Patent Office Young Inventors of the year, who are the brains behind Recycleye.
Their two-part invention consists of a computer vision system that uses artificial intelligence to accurately identify different types of waste items, and a robotic arm that moves on six axes to autonomously pick out valuable material from a recycling conveyor belt. The aim is to increase the purity, and therefore the value, of recycled waste bales, boosting the financial incentive to recycle.
By automating the process using AI, Dewulf and Hedley hope to also increase the proportion of waste that is recycled. With their innovative system already a huge success with clients across Europe and Australia, we find out whether this is the future of recycling.

Garbage is the biggest problem at the moment of our civilization.
The robots aren't recycling, they're sorting. Cardboard, glass and metal aren't an issue.The problem of recycling the plastic and the disposal of other waste remains.
Have a look at AMP robotics.
@@Bearbytez Is that a YT channel?
I don't quite see the advanteg here.
In Germany we have optical sorting stations in almost every plastic waste facility with wind jets sorting plastic waste in extremly high speeds you cannot even see with your eyes. Also camera / Infrared based.
The Robot might be couple of percent more precise, but you can't even achieve a fraction of the speed and my guess is, that the robot is even more expensive than a standard industrial solution.
Just check out this sorting plant in Germany, from minute 4:20 you see the jet air sorting

Here's the issue. A human can sort 40-50 pieces a minute from a much faster moving conveyor. Our optical sorters are 70 - 80% efficient and humans are quality control. I find it hard to believe a robot would keep up.
But a robot can work for 24 hours a day.😆
It will only get better.
Go sort some garbage then, Josh
@@prebenjaeger I Supervise a recycling facility Bud
Don't supervise. SORT
In Canada, we are not allowed to heat our homes with conventional fuels, so instead I burn my trash for heat.
Free Palestine !
just sayin....
