Poobot



Engineers at at the University of Pennsylvania's GRASP Lab finally do something sensible and build a robot that can scoop up dog poo.

They could sell a squadron of these down the local dog park.

And the dogs could have hours of fun chasing them and barking at them, too. Until confusion sets in.

Doggy thought process;

"BARK! BARK!"

"BARK! BARK!"

"Hey, why isn't this thing running away?"

"I'd do something to it- but it isn't a fireplug."

"I'll jump on it next. OOF! That HURT."

"I wonder if it's a squirrel in disguise?"

;-)
