The robots aren't recycling, they're sorting. Cardboard, glass and metal aren't an issue.The problem of recycling the plastic and the disposal of other waste remains.
I don't quite see the advanteg here. In Germany we have optical sorting stations in almost every plastic waste facility with wind jets sorting plastic waste in extremly high speeds you cannot even see with your eyes. Also camera / Infrared based. The Robot might be couple of percent more precise, but you can't even achieve a fraction of the speed and my guess is, that the robot is even more expensive than a standard industrial solution. Just check out this sorting plant in Germany, from minute 4:20 you see the jet air sorting th-cam.com/video/EvuNJ_yZi3g/w-d-xo.html
The robots aren't recycling; they're sorting. We don't know how much is sent to recycling facilities. I do know that there's not yet a deposit in the UK on cans and bottles. The streets are littered with them.
Here's the issue. A human can sort 40-50 pieces a minute from a much faster moving conveyor. Our optical sorters are 70 - 80% efficient and humans are quality control. I find it hard to believe a robot would keep up.
Garbage is the biggest problem at the moment of our civilization.

Have a look at AMP robotics.

But a robot can work for 24 hours a day.😆
It will only get better.
Go sort some garbage then, Josh
@@prebenjaeger I Supervise a recycling facility Bud
Don't supervise. SORT
In Canada, we are not allowed to heat our homes with conventional fuels, so instead I burn my trash for heat.
Free Palestine !
just sayin....
