QUA
SMART TRASH CANS | 2023
DESIGN: N. BASILE, N. CHIARELLI, L. FIORENTINO
Qua is a system of smart baskets for the cities of the future that aims to play with social robotics through a bio-inspired and playful design, in order to change the paradigm of robots responsible for collecting garbage, making them affable and reassuring.
The shape and functionality are inspired by nature, more specifically by the ducks and their iconic single-file line movement
Qua will move independently around the city, approaching the users when he recognizes that they have to throw waste, and then it will return to the charging hub responsible for the dumping of waste. Each basket will be responsible for collecting a waste and, going to meet the user, will facilitate it in the conferral.
