Dustbot
Dustbot is a robot that can collect garbage from homes. It can be summoned by phone call or SMS, and uses GPS to automatically make its way to the customer, collect the rubbish, and take it to a dustbin. In addition, the Dustbots carry environmental sensors to monitor the pollution levels over, for example, a pedestrian area. Prototypes have been tested in Italy, in Sweden, in Korea and Japan, and it is due for launch in 2009. The Dustbot project is funded by the European Commission.
==Testing and operation==
Dustbot is allegedly the world's first robot that comes to take away rubbish from a residence upon request.〔
〕 It can be summoned to an address by phone or SMS at any time of the day.〔 The caller’s position is calculated and the Dustbot is dispatched.〔 When the robot arrives "you use the robots display board to enter what sort of trash it is and then the robot carries it to a dust bin",〔 said Matteo Reggente, one of the DustBot scientists.〔 The DustBot then opens its bin, collects the trash and takes it to a designated area.
The Dustbot system, consisting of the DustCart and the DustClean robots, is designed to work in tight urban areas where large trucks find it difficult to operate,〔 such as old European cities.〔 It can work in narrow streets which are difficult for large refuse trucks to negotiate. The DustClean robot can also sweep, vacuum-clean and measure pollution.〔
