This adorable little robot is designed to make sure its photosynthesising passenger is well taken care of. It moves towards brighter light if it needs, or hides in the shade to keep cool. When in the light, it rotates to make sure the plant gets plenty of light. It even likes to play with humans.
Oh, and apparently, it gets antsy when itâs thirsty.
The robot is actually an art project called âSharing Human Technology with Plantsâ by a roboticist named Sun Tianqi. Itâs made from a modified version of a Vincross HEXA robot, and in his own words, itâs purpose is âto explore the relationship between living beings and robots.â
I donât care if itâs silly. I want one.
