Inspiration

We took inspiration from all around us, with trash and waste products ending up in landfills when they could've ended up in recycling, being repurposed instead of sent to a landfill. We wanted to make sure that anyone and everyone has the power to participate in our goals, through building this web application!

What it does

With authentication, server-side communication, and a variety of other technologies, we've created a user-friendly web application that users can sign in and sign up for. There are a variety of features and ideas we wanted to include, but due to the lack of time and resources, we were unable to include them. Some features we set up for but didn't have the chance to fully utilize include geo-fencing plots, dynamic user-profile pages set up with full customization an in-game currency/level up system, and a convolutional neural net to scan images in order to check the validity of the trash that user's pick up as being recyclable or not.

What we're proud of

Given the extensive of our ideas, our skill-level, and what we implemented, we're really proud of how far we've come, as the brainstorming, implementing, and finishing process all happened within a day, and through it, we've learned about client-side and server-side technologies, responsive design, dynamic web pages, and utilizing pre-trained neural networks, although we didn't have the time to do most of these features we've spoken about. However, the experience is really valuable and we're glad that we're reached where we are at now
