The robotic tree planter loves the environment just as much as you do!

Its time the world realizes the need to plant more trees. We’ve just been chopping them up all this while. And there sure doesn’t seem to be a better way to plant trees than sit back, relax, and have your robot do your bit for the environment. Designer Anna-Karin Bergkvist came up with this four-legged robot, who loves the environment just as much as you do. It steps carefully through foliage while planting, using its extendable planting arm and planting head. It also makes sure trees aren’t chocked to death by vines using hot steam to get rid of them. This robotic planter plants seeds in bio-degradable barriers that keep away pests until a stage where the plant can fend for itself and grow into a tree.

A single robot can carry around 320 seedlings at a time. And no, it can’t travel around on its own, so you’d probably need to move it to the required places. Tree planting can be a little difficult. Well, that’s why we use robots!
