Trash Police



Daily Mail

Have you ever done through someone else’s trash? BinCam uses camera phones fixed to the inside of kitchen bin lids and equipped with sensors so they take a picture every time the lid is closed.

The pictures are posted on Facebook so that others taking part in the experiment can see what their neighbours have thrown away.

A weekly score is calculated for each bin, and as the amounts of food waste and recyclable materials in the bins decrease, households earn gold bars and leaves.
