Abstract

L'invention concerne un kiosque de recyclage (100) pour un recyclage et une rémunération financière pour la soumission d'un dispositif électronique (150). Le kiosque de recyclage (100) comprend une zone d'inspection (106) ayant, de préférence, deux hémisphères bombés, réfléchissants, positionnés autour d'une table transparente et des caméras pour imager un dispositif électronique (15) placé sur la table. Le kiosque de recyclage (150) utilise une analyse visuelle pour identifier un dispositif électronique (150), pour déterminer l'état du dispositif électronique (150) et si le dispositif électronique (150) est authentique ou non.
