TECHNOLOGY

Technology behind BottleCoin.

BottleCoin combines embedded systems, sensor technology, user identification, and digital software to explore connected recycling solutions.

Embedded Hardware

The ESP32 acts as the core controller in the BottleCoin ONE concept. It processes input from the RFID reader and sensors and controls the device's information display.

User Identification

RFID provides card-based identification for BottleCoin ONE. BottleCoin X uses QR-based identification.

Sensor System

IR and ultrasonic sensors provide physical input to support the implemented collection process. They are not claimed to determine material composition or distinguish plastic from metal.

Digital Platform

The website is designed to present BottleCoin information and may support accounts, transaction history, point balances, machine information, and reward management as those features are implemented.

Digital Platform

Potential platform features.

Feature explanations and future development plans, not live functionality. A backend must be configured and verified before any of these operate for real users.
