Trash containers and vehicles under surveillance
Mative Cloud WM – Waste Manager and Synapsis devices connect trash bins and collection vehicles. Fill-level sensors and RFID tags indicate where to go. GPS and CAN bus data show how the fleet operates, AI-powered dashcams protect drivers, and digital reports ensure compliance with legal requirements.
What it solves
The waste collection problems we solve
- 01
Collection rounds that waste fuel
Fixed routes result in unnecessary kilometers and waste fuel. WM adjusts routes based on traffic and load levels; the GPS keeps every vehicle on course and flags any that are used off-route. Every kilometer avoided reduces fuel consumption and emissions.
- 02
Full or still empty trash bins
Fill sensors indicate which bins need to be emptied, so you can avoid making unnecessary trips. WM also displays the battery life of the RFID tags, so you can replace them before they stop responding. This way, collection routes are based on actual fill levels rather than a fixed schedule.
- 03
Recycling bags without traceability
RFID tags are assigned to and identify the recycling bins. The door-to-door scanners, installed on the vehicles, automatically read the tags, and the software manages the bins. The weighing kit records the weight of the waste for each bin.
- 04
Tired or speeding drivers
AI-powered dashcams detect drowsiness and speeding and issue immediate alerts. Feedback to drivers helps prevent collisions and injuries and reduces insurance risks. This is how a culture of safety is fostered within the team.
- 05
Outages that disrupt service
The Synapsis Smart CAN Bus reads fuel levels, temperatures, and odometer readings from the vehicle. By monitoring the engine's status, you can identify faults early and schedule maintenance based on actual wear and tear, not on a fixed schedule. Less time in the shop, vehicles that last longer.
- 06
Legal requirements and records to be maintained
Digital reports track service hours, inspections, and emissions in accordance with regional disposal requirements. Accurate records help you avoid fines, and digital documentation ensures you comply with local laws.

RFID waste collection tracking kit
RFID chips identify each container and weigh the waste. The data is sent to the route-planning app, enabling accurate calculation of collection costs.
Synapsis Smart CAN Bus
It reads fuel, temperature, and odometer data from the CAN bus of heavy-duty and industrial vehicles, providing a comprehensive vehicle diagnosis.
Synapsis ISBC Gateway
An industrial computer that collects data remotely. With the integrated Synapsis IoT Data Bridge, it transmits the data to Mative Cloud or any other platform.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about waste collection
Can I manage recycling using RFID tags?
Yes. RFID tags assign and identify the bags, and door-to-door scanners are installed on the vehicles. WM's software manages the containers, and the kit weighs the waste. Each container has a unique identifier, and the collection cost is calculated precisely.
How can I avoid vehicle downtime?
Fill sensors in the trash bins indicate which ones need to be emptied. WM adjusts routes based on traffic and fill levels, so vehicles avoid unnecessary stops and use less fuel. With GPS, you can track every vehicle and also reduce unauthorized use.
How do I check drivers' safety?
AI-powered dashcams detect drowsiness and speeding and issue immediate alerts. The Synapsis Smart CAN Bus adds vehicle data, and digital reports document hours of service and inspections. This helps you prevent accidents and lower your insurance premiums.
