AI‑driven camera sorting is moving into practical plant‑floor tools for ITAD and electronics recyclers. Early systems like Apple’s A.R.I.S. show that low‑cost vision models running on commodity hardware can drive pneumatic sorters at line speed and deliver high‑purity metal and PCB streams, suggesting that facilities which start piloting these techniques now will gain a structural edge on recovery, cost, and specification compliance over the next three to five years.

Can modular metals recovery challenge the smelter model?
A UK-based startup is testing a different approach to extracting metals from electronic scrap, one that could influence how downstream recovery fits into the IT asset disposition and recycling chain.
Wearables are coming
Over 600 million wearables shipped last year, representing the equivalent of smartphone-scale volume. And unlike phones, these devices are about to hit the disposition intake streams in waves. Available data suggests that the timeline is tight.
