Amazing robot bee can pollinate flowers

Recently, a young scientist has developed a superior robot bee that mimics the pollinating process of the bee plant.

Recently, a young scientist has developed a superior robot bee that mimics the pollinating process of the bee plant. Specifically, this robot bee has the ability to collect pollen and spread in other areas.

The Plan Bee, the brainchild of an industrial design student at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia, America. The idea of a robot bee came about after Anna learned about the statistics, indicating that the number of species of bees was decreasing dramatically.

This Bee Robot is called Plan Bee.

Desiring to raise awareness about the importance of insects in our food system, Anna has formed the idea of designing a robotic bee pollinator, in case the number of species The bee continues to fall uncontrollably.

To create this robot, Anna student created about 50 different design models, Anna finally selected a design that looks unlike bees. According to her explanation, she wanted to design a robot that could perform bee pollinating functions, rather than a bee-shaped robot. " When you turn the robot upside down, you see the flower, this is how I used to celebrate the role of flowers in the pollination process," said Anna Haldewang.

Anna wants to design a robot that can perform the pollen-like function of a bee rather than a bee-shaped robot.

By design, the Plan Bee robot bee is made up of a foam core, plastic wrap and two propellers. In addition, the 6 lower wings, all with small holes, allow the robot to collect pollen while flying.
