Chennai Students Use Robots To Plant 300 Saplings, Raise Micro-Forest. - NDTV
Vipanchi Nayak, a student author from Puducherry who participated in the event told NDTV that, "Robotics can help in fighting global warming. For others, this may look like a world record but we know we are doing something to save our planet. We should also start using technology the right way."
"We need to start utilising for example which people need like farmers. We need to help them with technology," he added.
Class 4 student K Chandini, said, "It was exciting and fun to use robots to plant saplings instead of gardeners doing it."
Robotics enthusiast students also shared their vision to design robots to rescue children who get trapped in borewells and to clear space junk.
Mobile phones were used as remote control to direct the robots. Some children despite facing glitches with their machines, managed to complete their tasks.
Each child manually filled hole with sand and 15 more children deployed another set of robots with sprinklers to water the saplings.
