AI enabled contamination & overfilled detection

AMCS Vision AI is an artificial intelligence-driven solution designed to digitize images of materials to identify contamination and provide operators with automated insights. Plus, reduces the risk of revenue leakage due to overfilled containers by automating image records of containers.

what is AMCS Vision AI?

AMCS Vision AI is our AI for waste management solution, designed to provide operators with automated and continuous insights across their operations.

It consists of a camera and recording device which provides images to the AI engine. The system can be fitted to a variety of assets including collection vehicles and compactors

This AMCS Vision AI unit records images and our Artificial Intelligence /Machine Learning engine automatically analyses them to detect target patterns (e.g., contamination, composition, etc.) to provide alerts, insights, and actions on the AMCS Platform portal.

Watch the video or download the brochure below to learn more about how AMCS Vision AI can help you avail of the AI capabilities for recycling, detecting contamination in recycling materials.

how AMCS Vision AI detects & manages overfilled containers

The automated and smarter way to to use AI in recycling to detect, prevent and charge for overfilled containers. Overfilled containers are a constant challenge for haulers that include financial costs for haulage due to higher disposal costs, safety issues and environmental damage.

The AMCS Automated Overfilled Container Management solution reduces the risk of revenue leakage due to overfilled containers by automating image records of containers, measuring the amount of material that is above the top of the container, records the amount and provides evidence to engage with the owner and charge where necessary.

how will AMCS Vision AI for waste management help my business?

There are a wide range of applications including:

  • Automated Material Identification to identify contamination in recycling material and to link it to the waste producer.
  • Material composition analysis to understand the granular components of the resource stream being collected/or being processed at scale, loading bay, sorting line etc.
  • Service exceptions requiring follow up such as overloaded containers, blocked access etc.
  • Safety items such as hazards in the material stream, driver safety issues etc.

benefits of Vision AI

financial

Low-cost automation of costly manual tasks. Increased quality of recycling material and sales price. Automatically bills for items.

environmental

Increases quality of material & reduces landfill contamination. Compliance with emerging legislation e.g., Extended Producer Responsibility.

safety & service

Records and generates alerts/actions for safety events e.g. gas canisters in collections, and service blockers such as overloaded containers.

AMCS Vision AI has provided us with great insight into the composition of the material that we are collecting. It is highly automated and provides insights to drive our decisions on improving the quality of our recyclate and providing valuable feedback to our customers to drive behavioural change.
