B-sensing

Empty the bins that need it. Catch the waste that does not belong.

A discreet lid sensor for municipalities and waste operators — fill level, contamination signals, and heat alerts so trucks roll when it matters.

For cities & operators

Real value on the ground — not another dashboard toy

Collection is still mostly scheduled by habit. B-sensing turns each bin into a quiet reporter so routes follow reality.

Smart collection route visiting only bins that signal they are ready
  • Fewer empty miles

    Send trucks to bins that are actually full. Skip the half-empty stops that burn fuel, time, and budget.

  • Cleaner streams

    When a paper bin suddenly looks like mixed waste — or a battery shows up where it should not — ops get a signal before the load contaminates a whole route.

  • Earlier heat warnings

    Unusual heat or fire-risk patterns can be flagged so teams intervene before a lid becomes an incident.

Capabilities

Three signals that change how you collect

Focused on garbage sensing today — the same platform outlook covers room sensing later. For now, every feature below earns its keep on the route.

Low versus high fill level detected across bins

Fill level

See empty, partial, or full — so dispatch stops guessing from last week’s calendar.

Sensors adapting to different bin shapes and contents

Wrong waste

Paper-only should not hide a watermelon or a battery. Flag anomalies against what that bin is meant for.

Heat & risk

Spot unusual heat signatures that can point to fire risk or dangerous loads before they escalate.

How it works

From lid to route — without changing the bin

  1. 01

    Mount under the lid

    A slim wireless unit sits inside the bin lid. Crews keep the same bins — no bulky boxes bolted to the street.

  2. 02

    Sense what is inside

    Distance mapping reads how full the bin is and whether the load looks uneven or out of place for that stream.

  3. 03

    Report when it matters

    Status travels over a long-range wireless network so planners see which stops deserve a truck today.

Smart routes

Trucks follow the bins that called

When a container crosses your fill threshold — or raises a contamination or heat flag — it joins the day’s circuit. Quiet bins stay quiet. That is fewer kilometres, lower emissions, and crews spent where citizens notice the difference.

  • Dynamic pickup lists instead of fixed “every Tuesday” waste.
  • Priority for overflowing or at-risk bins before complaints pile up.
  • Clearer proof for procurement: utilisation you can actually measure.

Discreet by design

Built to disappear into the lid

Ultra-low profile hardware means citizens still see a normal bin — while operations see live status. No kiosk on the street corner. No fragile add-ons hanging off the rim.
