Every bin.
Every lift.
Every truth.
The tamper-proof black box for municipal waste collection —
three generations in the field, with the fourth in development.
Waste collection leaks value
every single day.
Without objective identification, operators simply cannot prove what happened at the curb.
Illegal lifts
Bins without a valid contract are emptied anyway — service delivered, never billed.
Revenue leakage
Contract registers drift from reality; billing relies on assumptions, not events.
Unprovable disputes
“My bin was not emptied.” Without evidence, every complaint costs time and trust.
Zero transparency
Routes, vehicles and crews run blind — no data to plan, optimise or audit.
Tag. Truck. Cloud.
A UHF RFID tag on every container, a sealed sensor-fusion unit on every truck, and a cloud platform that turns millions of lifts into billing-grade evidence.
Identify
Encapsulated, password-protected, clone-resistant UHF RFID tags on bins, containers, bags and vehicles — readable from a distance.
Detect
Industrial edge unit with RFID, LiDAR, inductive sensor, camera and GPS classifies every lift as legal or illegal.
Prove
Scalable cloud stores events, GPS tracks and media; feeds billing, customer service, analytics and external systems.

A black box
nobody can bargain with.
- Zero crew interaction. Starts by itself, records by itself — no buttons, no scanning, no extra work.
- Cannot be switched off. Internal battery keeps recording after ignition-off; shutdown is gated by business logic so no event is ever skipped.
- Physically hardened. Purpose-built protector, cables routed in hydraulic hose, high-IP industrial sensors.
- Optional, not mandatory, feedback. Run it fully silent — or add OBU and lamps when you want the crew informed.
Built to detect sabotage,
not just survive it.
Every attempt to blind, disconnect or bypass the system leaves a trace. Technical events are first-class citizens next to business events.
Tamper events
Sensor loss, antenna faults, power anomalies, camera blind — raised as alerts, not hidden.
Offline-first
Full operation without GSM; ordered, loss-free sync when coverage returns.
Own power
Internal battery covers ignition-off windows and power cuts.
Live telemetry
Health metrics per vehicle feed central monitoring and proactive service.
Fail-safe storage
File-level fallback if a local database is damaged — events are recovered, not lost.
Security approach
Security and certification statements are being finalised.
One sealed unit. Six senses.
From sensor noise to a verdict —
in milliseconds.
Lift detected
LiDAR + inductive cycle + motion confirm a real emptying.
RFID window
Tags read across a time window, filtered by RSSI and direction.
Registry check
Tag ↔ bin ↔ contract ↔ service point, synced to the truck.
Photo + GPS
Timestamped still with reverse-geocoded address.
Video + GPS
Clip with pre- & post-event buffer as evidence.
Legal or illegal — documented beyond dispute.
We see the lifts
others can’t.
In real collection, bins and bags are often emptied by hand. Close-range systems are blind to that. WebWaste recognises and classifies manual lifts too — thanks to long-range UHF and sensor fusion.
Every truck is trained,
not just installed.
- Teach-in: technicians train the unit on the vehicle’s body and the container types it will lift.
- Route verification: a live ride-along validates and fine-tunes detection in real service.
- Optimal RF tuning: diagnostics guide antenna power and thresholds for stable reads.
- Versioned configuration: every parameter set is stored; re-tune after repair or body change.
The truck knows
the route.
- Full GPS tracking with position, speed and heading — HU-GO integration available.
- Route plans & calendars, geofences, change tracking — guided on the OBU.
- Vehicle diagnostics via FMS connection; fuel, RPM, usage.
- Electronic trip sheet generated automatically.
- Alerts to the cab — manual or automatic, e.g. expired contract ahead.
Web interfaces. Connected workflows.
Zero installs.
Master data & contracts
Bins, service points, partners, crews, vehicles — audited CRUD with soft delete.
Analytics & export
Maps, charts, statistics; every dataset downloadable for BI and Excel.
Customer service
Evidence-based complaint handling; public self-service portal.
A handheld that keeps
the register true.
- Tagging (“chipping”) of bins, containers, bags, vehicles and persons — linked to address and contract on the spot.
- Inventory & verification — read a tag, see its status instantly.
- Data cleansing of contract and container registers during rollout.
- Remotely updated — same release pipeline as the trucks.
UHF RFID PDA workflow turns a one-off chipping campaign into a continuously maintained, address-accurate asset register.
Gates & containers:
every movement logged.
- 24/7 site entry/exit of tagged vehicles and containers, with direction.
- Who took what, when — plate ↔ container ↔ time, photo on entry.
- Live stock & utilisation — idle containers and vehicles surfaced.
- Barrier automation for tagged vehicles; weighbridge integration.
The RFID waste bag.
Our own IP.
Single-use bag with an embedded UHF RFID identifier
- Unique, password-protected, anti-counterfeit chip embedded in a welded pocket.
- Reads reliably even with metal cans or liquids inside.
- Closed loop: IDs registered at production → only genuine bags count.
- Own production line, scalable (GINOP-funded chip-insertion machine).
Edge to cloud, built for large datasets.
Vehicle fleet. One console.
- AUTO-IT infrastructure-as-code: remote, scheduled commands & OTA updates to every device.
- Time-series metrics (Prometheus) with alerting — predictive service, not reactive.
- CI/CD pipelines, static analysis & quality gates on every release.
- Error tracking across devices and servers.
- ISO 9001 · 14001 renewal in progress.
From sensing to seeing.

Events and data.
New connections.
Lifts, media, routes and telemetry provide a basis for further analytics development.
Vision analytics
Waste-content analysis, contamination & foreign material, overfilled or damaged bins, litter left at the curb.
Predictive operations
Route efficiency, vehicle utilisation, landfill approach, demand forecasting per area and route.
Decision intelligence
BI aggregation across operators; fee-calculation basis; automated OKIR / EHIR regulatory reporting.
CRM quality
Video-backed resolution of placement disputes and service complaints.
Server-side ML
Index metadata, fix imperfect blur frames, run models too heavy for the edge.
