WIMPLE is a platform that reduces the complex
process of sorting high-quality recyclables.

  • WIMPLE is an AI-based waste classification platform integrated with the artificial
    intelligence system WEE which has been trained with high-quality waste data.
    It is designed to instantly sort recyclable materials upon disposal.
AI - WEE
The AI technology built into WIMPLE accurately identifies household waste types and achieves a recognition rate of 99%. This is made possible through continuous visual learning that adapts to each country’s and region’s recycling standards, trained using high-quality household waste data collected from diverse countries.

We recognise that the classification criteria vary slightly
from country to country and region to region.

Powered by waste-data training from many countries, WIMPLE with AI WEE can be used anywhere without limitations.
This is achieved by configuring category settings that reflect local sorting rules, using AI WEE trained with highly detailed classifications.

Able to distinguish even subtle differences in
color and volume of recyclables

WIMPLE recognizes all recyclable items — not only by category but also by fine details —
allowing it to differentiate items of the same type by color or volume.

Recognizes attached packaging and contaminants

Waste with foreign substances or mixed packaging materials cannot be recycled.
AI WEE detects contaminants and packaging residues present on recyclable waste.

Primary Sorting of Recyclable Waste in Public Spaces

Public trash bins often contain a mixture of recyclables and general waste. As a result, recyclable materials are sometimes incinerated together with non-recyclables. WIMPLE BIN P automatically determines whether an item is recyclable upon disposal and separates and collects recyclables to address this issue.

Fun Recycling Education for the Future Environment Our Children Will Live In

Recycling education standards vary across schools, educators, and programs, making consistent learning difficult. In addition, due to the lack of environmental education facilities, children often learn only theoretical knowledge, which lowers their awareness of environmental issues. Seoreu supports environmental education through an AI-based experiential recycling device that children find engaging. By recognizing waste and teaching proper sorting methods through various interactive content, WIMPLE EDU helps children learn correct recycling habits in an enjoyable way.

Recycling Education Videos
Based on the AI-recognized waste type, the device provides educational videos on correct sorting methods and environmental protection. The easy-to-understand videos help children learn proper recycling habits quickly.
Recycling Quiz
Children solve quizzes based on the waste they inserted and receive instant feedback tied to the AI recognition result.
This allows them to naturally learn correct sorting methods while maintaining interest and engagement.
Recycling Statistics Visualization
Progress is shown based on the type and amount of recyclables children insert.
By visualizing the environmental impact, children gain a deeper understanding of the importance of recycling.
Device Status Check
Component-level diagnostics detect problems early and support smooth maintenance.
