Australia introduces smart bins as a solution for waste management | Latest News | WION

[@rolleyrolley7192]

It's a joke. Building a machine to drop rubbish in one of 4 bins. People are fuckn lazy.

[@andhewonders]

I've been in that industry for about 27 years, the answer is, put a price on everything, when there's money attached, just stand back and watch them go.

[@archeus22]

It is NOT introduced NOW In Australia, household waste separation and collection of wastes in separate bins is ongoing since late 80's. Also there are huge containers outside every Malls for disposal where people go and dump large items i.e, extra furniture, mattress, bicycle and large items that are reusable.

[@TOSStarTrek]

Stuff like that works but they almost never pay for themselves.

[@dumdumbrown4225]

World: AI will take our jobs… Australia: AI supports laziness 🤣

[@harrykings927]

It's another time to set a goal for the year, one need to set goals and take bold steps in achieving them. Remember success is not obtained overnight, you have to stop procrastinating and try what you have always wanted to improve in you're life and well being. Investment will take you closer to your dreams.

[@jeanjacobson249]

I lost £1200 carelessly trading on a platform then I was referred to Mr muller he recovered the loss and made an extra profit of £4600

[@prestonblackburn2701]

Trading without a professional like Expert muller is like gambling with your money

[@prestonblackburn2701]

@Ekaterino John My first investment with Mr muller gave me the assurance that has made me invest without the fear of losing, I got four of my friends involved with him already

We've had them for years, do your research, Wion 🤓🇦🇺

[@aussiebornandbred]

Did you even watch the video? We havent had these for years, they're not even in the streets yet lol

[@dilligafwoftam985]

@@aussiebornandbred Oops ... sorry. So you have one huge compartmentalised bin per household. Why not have 1 normal, but big, bin per household but a bloody bug sorting system at the recycling centre

[@NickVanos]

This is a cool solution, my idea was to use the sound the object makes to identify the material. For instance glass, tin cans, paper and plastic all make distinctive sounds when 'falling onto a metal plate. Extra plus point is that even if the shape of the material changes, it still makes the same sound. That's a little harder when trying to identify a crushed soda can or bottle. 👌😀

[@jamessparkman6604]

Here’s the bright side at least you won’t have to cut down any more rain forest anymore I bet this will make it easy for the rainforest to recover there and the tree planters will have an easier time helping rainforests that Have been deforested recover

[@KR-yb2qq]

Each machine just costs $5000 per unit, and requires yearly maintenance and support of $1000. Life of the machine is 5 years, after which this machine will be replaced with newer model. There is no telling whether this machine itself is cycle-able or it would end up in the landfill.

[@davidhamtaro]

What’s the point? Many recycling centres closed down .

[@karrenpopovics2780]

Plastic in the USA has been shipped to China for disposal in the sea. Most plastics are NEVER recycled!

[@rohandas5643]

Cheap ppl

[@allmighty736]

And general waste and recycle waste ends up in the same place! I worked for the council I know that for a FACT

[@matty101yttam]

Could be made loads easier by regulating container styles rather than using AI. Companies vary their packaging for 2 reasons, to stand out...and to cover the product making it seem more than there is. Only one of those reasons has any merit, for the consumer though every single container is different which means they have to learn for every single container type. Regulating containers would also be cost and space efficient as while minimizing the product waste if they're all designed with those goals in mind.

[@sanjaybhatikar]

Interesting thought.

[@maiqtheliar2260]

Make humans smarter not bins. How is this going to solve the problem of the trash that comes from homes. We just put all in one bag. Why don't the gov pay the garbage men more to do this job?

[@amvillanueva1984]

This is very helpful. Amazing work from UTS.

[@lackability6000]

im a high school student and my team just built something like this... 💀

[@justinlove-rempel2748]

And how much of that waste is actually recycled and composted properly in order to reduce the impact on the environment?

[@Gfysimpletons]

Zero, nada, nothing, zilch………..it’s a scam…….

[@brucewilson1958]

How about raise and educate better humans.

[@shashankgaikwad1043]

Too expensive and too many would be required. Money could be better used in something else.

[@eddy2fast260]

So misleading showing normal house hold bins. These are obviously a posibility ONLY in public places.

[@KittyNinjas]

That's amazing! Wondering if they can design in a centrifuge like to speed up loading and processing....

[@jamessparkman6604]

If you ask me why don’t we show how people can make bird houses out of bottles

[@cristinagusatu6323]

Is good for recycling ♻️ paper glass plastic ,everything

[@mariahewitt9787]

But, right now we get 10c back for aluminium cans, glass bottles, plastic bottles. This will do away with that!!!!!!

[@rhapps121]

Why sell it to consumer? why not sell it to garbage disposal plant instead?

[@soniq080808]

Yes! Finally I don't have to think when throwing stuff away 😃

[@PlayShorts3]

What happens when one compartment is full?

[@scottthomas8894]

They left that part out for another episode. But, I herd the AI senses it full, bags and ties it, and when it senses the tucks coming down the street, it then shoots it out to the street for the trash truck and recycle truck to pick it up. Scuttle but was, their timing was off and either the AI was late and other vehicles run it over or they were early and the trucks run the bags over.

[@dilligafwoftam985]

Nice toy ... for a Uni project. Cost × 2 million households. Size and weight as it takes all waste in 1 segmented bin. Durability?

no child policy for those below poverty and one child policy for those below median income.

How about the manufacturers of products rethink on their packaging and stop blaming and guilt tripping the end consumer AI ITS ALL ABOUT CONTROL

quiet nice, and Good.... such things inventions in waste management are badly needed.

If you want to make things better. Have free large buns to be able to collect all garbage whilst I'm cleaning out my car.

[@jdogsful]

this inventor is dreaming

[@luddity]

How many jobs will this system eliminate?

[@playful1]

Doesn't sound like a great solution! After all the modern AI sorting it increases the efficiency by only mere 5%!

[@togbeosagyefo8705]

Great idea 💡

[@harlzaotearoa7769]

So what happens if i put my maccas paper bag with the plastic straw and spoon in it at the same time? Does the smart bin seperate the content or would it just spin in circles hahaha OVER LOAD OVER LOAD OVER LOAD THEN BURN OUT HAHAHA

[@donnacabot3550]

Right. We need to know where ur at at all times, but don’t want u to know so we will do it with plastic trash bins.

Paranoid much?

Smart AI trash bins instead of an educated public doing the sorting using hands and that computer everybody possesses between the ears.

[@Gfysimpletons]

My garbage man takes the trash, recycle and yard waste and puts it all in the same truck🤷 It’s a scam……nobody wants to use recyclables, way too expensive……..

won't be till after 2029 that they try to recycle otherwise it does go in the landfill

Soooooo the smart ben...is going to physically take the waste out that's not suppose to be in there...just asking. call 911 if they continue or write out a citation???
