Eco Factor: Farmer builds 26 robots from junk to perform daily tasks.
A Chinese farmer, Wu Yulu, has proved that mechanical skills don’t come with after years of specialized education, but all that is needed is passion and patience. The farmer has designed a family of 26 robots from scrap materials. Each of the robots has been named after the creator’s name itself.
The first prototype developed by Wu, named Wu No.1, which took a couple of years to build, was barely able to move. With time Wu enhanced his skills of robot designing and his latest invention is able to pull him in a rickshaw for about 6 hours on a single charge.
The Dark Side:
The farmer has shown the potential of the human brain by crafting something ingenious out of scrap and that too without undergoing any specific degree courses. We hope that all future robots from Wu’s lab would be able to do much more than just pulling a rickshaw for 6 hours.
