Short description: AI, Data and Robotics for sustainable recovery of critical raw materials from urban waste.
Date: 04.11.2024 | 14.00 - 15.30
Location: Pluto room
Description:
We need critical raw materials for the green and digital shift. In Europe, we throw away over half a ton of electrical waste per inhabitant each year. Could increased recovery and recycling of raw materials from waste be the solution?
At this event, we talk about how urban mining can contribute to solving the material crisis and how AI, Data and Robotics systems can be part of a sustainable solution.
We need safe processes, technologies that reliably work and framework conditions that contribute to a productive environment. We need to do the job without using a lot of manual work. But how do we make it happen?
AI, Data and Robotics systems are part of the answer. The robots must be equipped with radical new foundational AI models that make it possible to operate in different physical environments. The models must reinforce the robots' learning, interaction and operational capabilities.
This workshop will elaborate on the status-quo of waste management and how AI, Data and Robotics could enabling sustainable recovery and recycling critical raw materials from urban mining.
