Scientists Just Brought Wall-E to Life With a Lovable, Seed Planting Robot
A miniature robot treads stealthily in a vast desert, navigating the treacherously empty terrain in pursuit of fertile areas. When it identifies one, it reports the findings and then plants seeds based on the data retrieved from its sensors and navigation system. The autonomous robot, A'seedbot, could transform desert soil into a lush landscape, reducing the percentage of the desert to a large extent in the UAE. This tiny robot farmer is the graduation project of Mazyar Etehadi from the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation. A'seedbot was unveiled at the Global Grad Show, an event that encourages designers to unveil innovative solutions to today's pressing social and environmental problems.
