The Plastic Sensing Material Recovery System is an intelligent waste management solution that combines time-of-flight sensing technology with advanced computer vision algorithms to accurately identify and sort different types of plastic materials in real-time. The system employs a dual-sensor approach where the time-of-flight sensor provides precise depth and shape information while the high-resolution camera captures detailed surface characteristics and markings, enabling the system to distinguish between various plastic types such as PET, HDPE, PVC, and others.
