How it works

From the truck to the regulator

Oscar turns every pickup into a data point — no new bins, no new routes, no extra stops.

  1. 01

    Oscar rides the truck

    Edge-AI hardware mounts on the collection vehicle and watches material as it enters the hopper.

    On the vehicle

  2. 02

    Detection at the bin

    Computer vision flags contamination in real time and attributes it to the exact collection point.

    At the curb

  3. 03

    Feedback to the generator

    Residents and customers get personalized notifications based on local recycling rules — behavior change at the source.

    At the source

  4. 04

    Reporting to the regulator

    Continuous collection data becomes automated reporting for SB 1383, EPR programs, and beyond.

Point-of-collection contaminant detection

Computer vision spots the wrong material in the wrong bin as it's collected — and ties every event to the exact address, route, and time. No audits, no sampling.

SB 1383 and EPR reporting, without the spreadsheet scramble
