The idea behind the cleanSpot application is to provide people with an easy way to search for recycling centres (called ‘puntos limpios’ - clean spots in Spanish) and specialised recycling containers where they can simply go and drop off their non-conventional urban waste for correct recycling. The application provides a map with all recycling spots, which users can easily navigate to search for the nearest. Users can also take a picture of their waste to detect - via image recognition - the category it belongs to and calculate the amount of CO2 emissions saved when correctly recycling/reusing it.

 

In 2019-2020 Digital Spaces Living Lab (DSLL) translated the cleanSpot mobile app in Bulgarian and conducted some Living Lab trials, with the main aim of improving the app interface. Automated waste recognition using Imagga’s waste recognition technology (https://imagga.com/blog/imagerecognition-in-waste-management-how-ai-can-make-our-world-cleaner/) was added to the app and extensively tested with the help of the DSLL team.
