Last Updated: Dec 12, 2022
FairPrice Group is partnering with A*STAR to launch a pilot program for smart waste sorting bins called BINgo. The goal of BINgo is to encourage people to recycle more and to do it correctly.
BINgo is a waste sorting system that uses AI and sensors to help people recycle metal cans, glass, paper and plastic packaging.
The machine can identify different types of waste and tell whether they can be recycled. It can also tell if the waste has any contamination that would make it difficult to recycle. As people use the machine, it gives them information about recycling.
