GAWSS is a 190 cm tall, AI-powered recycling robot developed to promote sustainability and public engagement in collaboration with Migros and Gökçeada Municipality. Equipped with stereo speakers, LED feedback, and cameras, it navigates town centers on tank-style tracks while sorting waste into plastic, metal, paper, and bio categories in real time.

Its transparent 360° midsection makes the sorting process visible, building public trust and educational impact. With a modern, cyberpunk-inspired design, GAWSS is not just a functional tool but a mobile awareness platform—encouraging curiosity, interaction, and behavior change in urban environments.
