They can put as many sorters onto the conveyor as required. At the end it can be jumbled and put back on the conveyor again, or a human can sort out the odds and ends. It's a start and is not a topic for trolls to bitch about here.
Steve started out a debate by trying to play the shill gambit, an automatic forfeit before he even got started. Next time try starting with a cogent refutation. Ignorant troll comments are not valid so that too is a blunder. Anonymous cowards say things here they would never say to the face of a reporter or facility tour guide. Popeye 2, Steve 0
That is REALLY satisfying. We just need A MILLION more of those things and humans won't have a job, unless to make it. This could also solve our FULL RECYCLING FACTORY problem
Nice, but what we really need is a machine a high-speed machine to sort out and reject all the dummies who can't follow simple recycling instructions. I've seen people put polystyrene, plastic bags, bubble wrap, coffee cups, diapers, dryer sheets, and every other kind of useless garbage in recycling bins. Yesterday I saw a recyclable plastic bottle carefully stuffed with the garbage from someone's fast food meal!
I mostly blame the recycling companies for not having CLEAR instructions for what can be throw into the bins. People are mostly unsure, and to make it easier they feel comfortable just throwing it into a bin and letting someone else figure it out. Oh, and WHY isn't polystyrene recyclable? To people, it's "PLASTIC" and therefore belongs in the bin.
This probably costs $250,000, plus the other robots and material handling to break apart the waste stream into discrete bits neatly passing the picker. "Every last dump" will never have one. People's laziness and stupidity increases the cost of recycling, thus lowering the value of garbage. China is no longer accepting waste paper from the USA because there's too much other crap in the millions of tons it was receiving (Google it, it's an interesting story. It is great to mine a dump to recover valuable materials, and it's worth doing if it's running out of space, but until the robots drop in cost 99% the value of the recycling stream doesn't support it.
The R & D to create the first prototype may have cost 100K, these will cost less than 20K apiece. Three shifts of workers for a year would cost at least 75K plus benefits and taxes. You were saying?
Disliked comment. No consideration of the fact that more than one arm per conveyor can be used, and at the end of the conveyor a human can deal with the odds and ends.
Do he just give that robot a fist bump? lol

Do you work for that company, or why the weak attempts to deflect perfectly valid questions with pointless insults?

Look at Pete Q's reply to Foxi to see an example of a non-trolling intelligent comment.

Wow, that is amazing. It is so human like sorting it out.
Make one arm that does the function of 3, can then pack more arms in tigher space, this tech will evolve and succeed
Fantastic
Music?
we are provider of this kinds of solution
Might as will retire, I can't complete against a robot.
You should be learning how to service them. Community colleges offer industrial robotics classes.

Put every last item in every last dump through one of these and what's the concern, exactly?

Ik work as a truck driver for recycling company and reality everything like animals and so I see in it
I work with robots and they are not better.
Why aren't they better?
Disliked. It tried picking one up but missed.
