Problem_
Packaging/Industrial
To create a recycling bin that will help people sort out their waste. Most of the time, contamination occurs due to the confusion among people about which category is appropriate to throw in a particular bin, which is also one of the hardest issues to deal with for the city garbage centers.
Solution_
Concept/Execution
Neo is an intelligent recycle bin concept that can keep different types of garbage like electronic, trash, recycling and compost separately to prevent contamination among toxic materials, recycle materials and compost waste. To make it easy to understand for everyone, Neo uses simple icons and particular color codes instead of textual instructions for each category. It contains sensors on all sides to detect the right content when someone stands in front of it with some garbage. A turn table at the bottom has made it easier to access any side in case the bin is placed against a wall.
