This is a system designed to help sort medical waste in places like hospitals. It uses multiple containers, each with a movable lid, housed in separate compartments. The system can identify a waste item, determine the correct container for it, and help you put it in. A control system can lock a container's lid once it reaches a certain fill level, and a barcode scanner is used to identify items.
Why it matters: Filed before ubiquitous, low-cost barcode scanners and advanced fill-level sensors were common. Modern embedded systems make the control and locking mechanism much simpler and cheaper to implement.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
