This time, at the Campus Venture Grand Prix Chubu Tournament, which is known as the “Gateway to Success for Student Entrepreneurs,” “Ripura,” developed by our students, won the Encouragement Award. "Ripura" is a device that identifies the type of plastic by attaching a near-infrared irradiation device to a smartphone camera and shooting with a dedicated application, and it can also identify black plastic, which is often found in marine plastics.As material recycling, which recycles waste into new products, is spreading, "Ripura" will be a system that can contribute to solving the social problem of marine plastics.
