- dash2 10mo agoA gardener robot should be able to: - plant new plants (hold plant in pot, remove plant from pot, shake excess soil, dig hole using trowel, place plant in hole, pat down earth, water plant using watering can) - dig up weeds (using e.g. a hoe, fingers) - set up a trellis (attach trellis to wall using drilled-in screws; wrap vines around trellis) - water plants with hose (unwrap hose, turn on tap, spray plants) etc. What form factor will beat humans at all these tasks?
- bandrami 10mo agoFour different drones, or one drone with four tool attachments. The robot shouldn't need to "use a trowel"; it should be a trowel.
