SmartCan is a motorized attachment that can be controlled via an app. It works with any city-issued garbage bin and can be programmed to go out and back on certain dates. SmartCan will be 3D-printed and could be on the market by 2020. Pricing and specific details have yet to be disclosed, but it has won the Cool Idea award from Protolabs. The SmartCan has no docking station on the pavement, or pedestrians could stumble on it, damaging the unit.”]
