Explications in video :


Bot2Karot is the first gardening robot. It is remotely controlled by smartphone to grow a vegetable garden. Thanks to a camera, sensors and articulated arm, the robot waters and monitors your vegetables for you. He warns you when salads need water or when the soil around the tomatoes need to be worked. You just need to give him adequate instructions with a series of programmed operations. With Bot2Karot, you don't need to spend hours in your vegetable plot to harvest big radish. For exemple, my grandmother would spend eight hours a week in her vegetable plot but workers don't have as much time to dedicate to gardening. Its articulated arm means gardeners will not have the back-breaking job of tending low plants and opens gardening to everyone, especially the disabled. It allows a customisable little garden that is sustainable, providing local vegetables with water and energy savings.
