Apple has a new iPhone-destroying robot called Daisy that can disassemble 200 phones in an hour
Apple's got a new robot. You can't buy this'bot, though -- it's only for Apple's use. The robot, named Daisy, takes apart old iPhones so that the valuable materials in the devices, like gold, can be extracted. It's an improved version of "Liam," the recycling robot that Apple revealed in 2016 to take apart iPhone 6 phones. Daisy can disassemble 200 iPhones an hour, Apple said in a press release on Thursday extolling the virtues of its latest droid. And Daisy can take apart nine different versions of the iPhone, a step up from Liam's limited capabilities that only allowed it to dismantle the iPhone 6.
