Noosa, QLD Cherbourg AI-Enabled Waste Recognition System

Complete

The council-run Peregian Digital Hub designed a smart waste system for the Cherbourg Material Recovery Facility. Technologists at the hub trained an AI platform to recognize common waste items from the facility's database. Three-dimensional cameras on the sorting line feed images to the platform for counting and evaluation. Recognition of damaged or soiled items improves over time and informs council waste practices.
