What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Glacier deployed an advanced AI robot in Sarasota to manage waste streams from Sarasota and Manatee counties. The machine uses camera vision and AI technology to tag items like paper, metals, and glass on a conveyor belt. It directs a robotic arm to pick up recyclables, recovering over 35,000 items daily. These recovered materials are shipped to another facility to be reprocessed into new packaging.
