iRobo, a Bangledeshi Scrapbot
Engadget posted a very interesting story on a rather enterprising Bangledeshi Grad Student that has seemingly created a bot that will perform menial tasks and labor such as mopping and picking up trash. The bot is user-driven responding to simple voice commands and surprisingly was made from scrap parts found at electronic and auto shops. The inventor, Feroz Ahmed Siddique added, “I hope people will be able to buy it for less than $1,000.”
Reuters has a video of the bot in action, watch after the jump…
