AND FINALLY ... Anyone who loves to grow plants knows how annoying weeds can be. Whenever they pop up, you've got to chuck them out of the ground ASAP. Otherwise, your precious crops or flowers could be toast. 💐 It’s an annoying task. What if we automated it? Luckily, inventors are already working on it. Carbon Robotics just released its third-generation Autonomous Weeder, a smart farming robot with 12 cameras that scan the soil. Once its AI-powered computer spots a weed, the robot’s carbon dioxide lasers blast them away. 🤖 Although it's a bit intimidating at first glance, it's a sustainable alternative to chemical herbicides, which kill weeds but contaminate the water and soil. Plus, it can blast away more than 100,000 weeds per hour. You’ve got to see it in action! |
