Our presentation
Bartosz and Mateusz presented their UAVVaste project, which uses drones to detect litter in the natural environment and reports it to a database. They talked about how the dataset and algorithm were built and then demonstrated how they developed a prototype of the device. The prototype also enabled them to win 3rd place at the international technology competition Teknofest 2021, Turkey in the UAV free mission category.
