Artificial Intelligence Sorts One-Third Of UK's Recycled Batteries
#-Link-Snipped-#
Bringing forth an intelligent and sophisticated method of sorting, Claes Strannegård, an AI Researcher at the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers University of Technology, has developed a machine as an innovative R&D project in artificial intelligence that does automatic sorting of recycled batteries. The machine's artificial nervous system is taught to recognize 2,000 different types of batteries by taking their pictures from all possible angles using a computerised optical recognition system. The sorting takes places at a rate as fasta as ten batteries per second. Once identified, compressed air separates the batteriest into different containers according to their chemical content - nickel-cadmium or lithium. This research work can be further revised and developed to help industries sort all kinds of waste. This looks like one interesting application of artificial intelligence - something to look forward to.
