Why is it important?
Waste management is crucial for protecting the environment, maintaining public health, and conserving resources. Improper disposal of waste can lead to pollution of land, water, and air, causing serious environmental and health issues. Efficient waste management helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, prevents the spread of diseases, and minimizes odors and pest infestations. It also conserves natural resources through recycling and reduces energy consumption. Additionally, effective waste management optimizes operational costs by improving collection efficiency and reducing unnecessary trips. By maintaining clean and hygienic public spaces, it enhances the overall quality of life and contributes to sustainable urban development.
What are we trying to do?
Our project addresses the critical challenge of efficient waste management by leveraging the power of computer vision. We have developed a comprehensive system that monitors waste bins in real-time, providing valuable insights for optimizing waste collection and disposal processes. This system offers a significant improvement over traditional, often inefficient, waste management practices.
