The Waste Sorting Robot Kit teaches artificial intelligence through a simulated waste sorting station. Powered by micro:bit, it uses the WonderCam AI vision module and 12 built-in trained waste sorting models to recognise the category of a waste item; an MP3 module announces the result, an OLED display shows it, and the matching bin opens. WonderCam, on a Kendryte K210 processor with a 2-megapixel camera, also offers face, colour, tag, number and landmark recognition, image classification, feature learning and line following. It is sold with or without a micro:bit V2.0.

What it does
Built for.
Recognise, announce, sort
Using its 12 built-in trained waste sorting models, WonderCam identifies the category of an item. The MP3 module announces it, the OLED display shows it, and a servo opens the matching bin.
WonderCam AI vision module
WonderCam pairs a Kendryte K210 processor with a 2-megapixel OV2640 image sensor and a 2.0 IPS display, and connects over I2C. Its built-in functions cover face recognition, image classification, feature learning, colour recognition, line following, and tag, number and landmark recognition.
AI in a daily task
Sorting waste puts AI into a familiar setting, so learners see how artificial intelligence connects with daily life.
