Maker Faire Rome 2023
RoboButts by Project40
RoboButts is a robot equipped with a robotic arm whose purpose is to collect butts. What we are presenting is the first working prototype of a project whose purpose is to be implanted in urban cleaning systems. Normally it takes about 30 years to dispel a stub but with our project we want to intervene immediately on this phenomenon. The robot is now controlled with the PC's keyboard but we are working on an AI to detect the cigarette butts and to make the robot completely autonomous
