Here are a few use cases for this project:

Waste Sorting Automation: "Garbage Classifier" can be used in waste management plants to automatically sort garbage into different categories, which could speed up the process, reduce manual labor and improve recycling rates.
Smart Trash Bins: The system could be integrated into smart trash bins in homes, offices, or public areas to identify the type of waste thrown away. These bins could then offer guidance on correct disposal or even sort the waste internally.
Environment Cleanliness Monitoring: City or environmental agencies could use drones or mounted cameras equipped with this model to monitor public areas for improper waste disposal. If specific types of garbage are identified, appropriate clean-up teams could be dispatched.
Educational Applications: The model could be used in a mobile app designed to educate the public about proper waste disposal. Users could snap a photo of their item, and the app would identify the waste type and provide proper disposal instructions.
Packaging Industry: Companies in the packaging industry could use the model to identify and categorize packaging waste, which is a critical aspect of life-cycle analysis and sustainable practices. This could help companies improve their manufacturing processes, marketing strategies, and fulfill corporate social responsibility commitments.
