The Single Source of Truth for Mineral Waste.​

Where estimates were once made, Optocycle provides objective real-time data. Our AI technology transforms construction waste from a black box into a transparent resource – audit-proof, automated, and seamlessly integrated into your existing processes..

01 
See with INA


Our Optical Sensing. 

For extreme demands and the highest accuracy. Our versatile Edge Device INA is the centerpiece of an intelligent material flow analysis. It combines up to four cameras, NIR functionality, spotlights, and powerful integrated computing power in a compact system. INA is universally applicable – whether over trucks, on conveyor belts, directly on the construction site, or over piles.

02
Understand with GAIA


Our most advanced AI model. 

For the perfect analysis of material flow. GAIA is our proprietary, self-learning AI model that transforms the raw data collected by INA into usable information. As the core of intelligent material flow analysis, GAIA specializes in precisely classifying even the smallest material components, reliably detecting contaminants, and continuously improving classification accuracy.

03
Manage with MIP


Our Material Intelligence Platform.

The platform provides you with a single source of truth for managing all material data. Here, all relevant information is permanently archived and analyzed. The platform impresses with its simple and seamless API integration or the intuitive web dashboard. This makes MIP the ideal foundation for evaluating materials transparently, future-proof, and data-driven.

Plug & Play

Installation in a few hours. No downtime. Ready for use immediately.

Up to 5x more value creation

Economic upcycling instead of expensive downcycling.

0 Waiting Time

Analysis in flowing traffic ("Zero Touch") for maximum throughput.

100% Objectivity

A standard for all – data-driven, transparent, and unassailable.

I spy with my little eye


Our technology distinguishes not only numerous EWC classes but also the most important attributes such as grain size, edge lengths, and contaminants. Additionally, it's adjustable to customers specific needs and materials.

Truck Imager Belt Imager Heap Imager Train Imager Self Scan

Truck Imager

Transparency at the scale. Identify material flows upon arrival.

Everything you ever wanted to know about your inbound: fully automated and in real-time. The Truck Imager scans the loading area directly at the scale or in the entrance area. No more discussions and subjective estimates.

Belt Imager

Efficiency on the line. Continuous quality control of the material flow for maximum value creation.

The Belt Imager shows you exactly what's going on. Our AI-powered detection precisely identifies what material is on your conveyor belts. Use this knowledge to actively optimize the processing and get the most out of the material.

Heap Imager

My Heaps don't lie. Precise volume and material analyses in real time.

The Heap Imager looks closely when the material is most visible: during the unloading process. It analyzes the flow of material in motion as it is tipped from the truck or wheel loader. This also allows for the detection of contaminants that were hidden within the load.

Train Imager

Rail logistics. Keep an eye on car conditions and cargo.

The Train Imager automatically captures both: the condition of the wagon and the loaded material. It documents every entry seamlessly while passing through. This saves manual inspections in the track area and provides immediate objective data for dispatch and quality assurance.



Self Scan

Delivery via app. The digital gateway for drivers.

The Self Scan turns the smartphone into a terminal. Through an intuitive web app, drivers independently navigate the process: from scanning the QR code to the AI check to the digital delivery note. Say goodbye to annoying paperwork in the office and long wait times at the scale.​

FAQ

You replace subjective estimates with objective facts. This increases your varietal purity, creates a transparent data basis for billing, and minimizes costly contract disputes. In short: You save costs by reducing scatter losses, risk premiums, and conflicts.

Wir bieten unsere Lösung als Product-as-a-Service (PaaS)-Modell an, um hohe Einmalkosten zu vermeiden. Die Kosten setzen sich aus zwei Teilen zusammen:

  1. One-time fees: An installation fee (depending on effort) as well as possible development costs if you require very specific adjustments to your systems.
  2. Ongoing PaaS fee: A monthly charge that includes the use of hardware, software updates, and access to your data platform.

We take the crucial step beforehand: Optocycle analyzes the physical composition of each individual load – directly upon delivery in real-time. Instead of random estimates, you receive 100% transparency. We provide the data foundation for active management of your material flow, seamlessly integrated into the processes of your recycling yard.

Our systems are already in use at leading companies in the German recycling and construction materials industry. Our reference customers include Heinrich Feeß GmbH & Co. KG, Otto Dörner GmbH & Co. KG, and Blasius Schuster GmbH & Co. KG.

We recognize 19 EWC Classes (like Concrete, Wood, Soil, Mixed Mineral Construction Waste and Gravel) plus 9 attributes, including Grain Size, Purity, Volume and Edge Lenght.

The camera must be mounted exclusively at the correct angle in a suitable location and requires a stable internet connection in addition to power.

Our camera systems are flexibly installed at the key points of your operation – whether at the vehicle scale, above a conveyor belt, or at a dumping site. The effort is minimal, is usually handled by our customers themselves, and typically takes only a few minutes.
