LCD-equipped ‘smart recycle bins’ showing up on London streets @ DVICE:
The gadget: bomb-proof recycle bins with dual-screen LCDs.
The info on the screens: Stuff only business folk would enjoy, like London stock exchange numbers and content from The Economist.
The total cost to install: About $47,000 for 25 smart bins.
The future: London wants to install 75 more of these high-tech trash cans by before the 2012 London Olympics..
The Daily Mail has more… I suppose there are sensors in there that are doing things like detecting pollution, harmful substances, etc, etc ?
