blog.washingtonpost.com -- Burlington,
Mass.-based robot manufacturer iRobot
demonstrated a couple of new gadgets yesterday
afternoon.
One, the Looj, falls into
the same category of household helper as its
Roomba vacuum and Scooba floor washer
(here's my review of the latter). This $99
robot crawls down a gutter on little tank
treads, sweeping out leaves and the gunk they
decompose into with a plastic auger. Seems
straightforward enough to me (if a senseless
waste of perfectly good compost). See the
complete story here.
