Prospero the robotic farmer

Let's face it - people are lazy, but incredibly prolific. We saw it my all to make beds, so that the channel switching, the keyboard without contact. And now we are blessed with a robot, plant seeds for us. That's right, the image you see above is a five-legged machine, which has the capacity to take all steps necessary to grow the plant. Thanks for the Parallax Propeller chip, which will be installed Schmart Board, Prospero is able to move independently in any direction and not to hinder the objects. It is not the sensor, which is in the body, which senses if the seeds were introduced. If the robot detects that the country needs a seed, it will dig a hole, remove the seeds, to move the soil back over the hole and then spray-painted on a white background note that the process was successful. Stomach bot is also equipped with fertilizers and pesticides, as well as Prospero can "speak" (IR) and other robots to maintain the cultivation of creative performance.
