impact. PlasticApp is a mobile application designed to revolutionize the way we tackle plastic waste. With its user-friendly interface and innovative features, PlasticApp makes recycling engaging and rewarding. Users can earn points by scanning the barcode of their plastic waste, whether it's a bottle, container, or packaging. The app geolocates nearby recycling points, making it easy to find the closest drop-off location. Additionally, PlasticApp allows users to track their personal environmental impact, compare it with the community, and participate in challenges and tournaments to earn rewards. With a focus on sustainability and community engagement, PlasticApp is leading the way towards a greener and cleaner future. PlasticApp has recently successfully concluded its alpha testing program, putting its scanning and geolocation protocols to the test. During the month of June, 100 alpha testers participated in the evaluation of the application. During this period, over 500 items were sorted, and more than a hundred recycling points were geolocated in five different countries: France, Italy, Spain, Greece, and Portugal.
The initial gamification mechanisms were put to the test, showing a significant impact on the adoption of recycling practices. User feedback also revealed a strong interest in their position within the "Sort&Earn" tournament, demonstrating their determination to rank high. Additionally, users have shown a keen interest in the data provided by the application regarding the impact of recycling on greenhouse gas emissions reduction and energy consumption.
The next phase of beta testing in July and September 2023 will involve testing new gamification elements, further enhancing the user experience of PlasticApp. Implementation of a 3D graphical environment is also planned during this beta phase, allowing users to witness the virtual environment getting cleaner as they recycle their plastic waste and earn points, emphasizing the imperceptible effects of their actions in the real world, but visible within the gaming universe.
To promote the adoption of the application, PlasticApp will share posts on its Instagram and LinkedIn pages, which have a substantial following of nearly 500 subscribers, inviting readers to download the application via a provided link. Additionally, posters will be displayed at the disembarkation points of cruise ships in Ajaccio, where an average of 50,000 passengers arrives each week, as well as at the Ajaccio Tourism Office, in collaboration with local authorities and institutional partners.
These initiatives aim to raise awareness among a wide audience and encourage the adoption of PlasticApp, further strengthening our positive impact in the fight against plastic pollution. PlasticApp was awarded twice during the summer of 2023. We won the "inclusive ecological transition winner" prize from Adie, we also won the "start'in corsica winner" prize organized by the university foundation from Corsica. Recently we were selected for an exchange program organized by the Corsican community in Greece where we met NGOs, startups and communities on the theme of plastic pollution. Finally PlasticApp joined the Xfounders Bootcamp program in Antalya, Turkey for 4 weeks in order to program its blockchain ecosystem and meet the major blockchain players such as AVA, polygone, BSC chain etc..
