Delivery Robot for Domestic Waste Collection

I&T Wish Delivery Robot for Domestic Waste Collection
(REF: W-0396)
Matched I&T Solution
Trial Project
Summary and Challenges
  • Currently, the collection and removal of domestic waste from residential flats were operated manually by responsible staff.
  • Manual collection and removal of domestic waste may evoke the chance of cross-infection of responsible staff.
  • To minimize the potential health threat to staff, a delivery robot could be deployed to assist the daily job of collecting and removing the domestic waste of residents.
Expected Outcome
  • A delivery robot for collecting domestic waste from each residential flat.
  • The movement of the robot could be remote controlled by an operator using a control app/device, such that the operator does not need to contact the domestic waste throughout the whole process.
  • It would be preferable if robotic arm is adopted for collecting domestic waste from position as-low-as 10cm from the floor level.
  • The robot with 5G network is very much preferred such that the operator could control the operation off-site.
Expected Trial Duration 6-month
