By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-From Washington, D.C., NewsRx journali sts report that a patent application by the inventors Agha, Imran (Manchester, G B); Hulley, Mark (Sheffield, GB); Moody, Robert (Knutsford, GB); Ng, Jia Hua (Sh effield, GB), filed on February 7, 2024, was made available online on August 22, 2024. No assignee for this patent application has been made. News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors: "Sustainability is of increasing focus in relation to both sourcing of and disposing of industrial electrical products. This broadly covers the environmental, economic and societal factors in materials usage, particular ly around recycling and reuse of electronic materials and components. When an in dustrial electrical product, such as an electric motor, drive or controller appr oaches its end of life it is typically disposed of without any targeted disassem bly or automated processing for reuse. This may be at e-waste facilities or even landfill. One exception to this is the Apple™ Material Recovery Lab, where the Daisy robot dismantles used Apple™ devices to recover components for materials r ecycling. However, such programs are not widespread, and at present cover only a small geographical area and product line.
