Creativity is boundless: the first self-propelled potato in the world

Not only can glowing lights, potatoes can be made into a fun-driven car.

We have seen experiments at schools in which people attach several electrodes to the potato and produce enough electricity to light a small bulb. But engineer Marek Baczynski pushed the experiment one step further by creating the world's first self propelled camper .

A simple potato does not make much electricity, but if you add solar panels to potatoes - as a battery - you will have enough power for an electric motor. After only 25 minutes of intensive work, Marek upgraded the potato - which he called Pontus - into a car that could run at 7.62 inches (7.3 meters) per day. Although this speed can be considered slow but keep in mind that your pet cat even moves less from sunrise to quiet.

In addition to spontaneous rotation, Marek also added to his potato car the ability to find yourself where the light to park (charge) or follow him around the room.

Potatoes never need food, water, or bathroom and it can not spoil your sofa like cats. In other words, this self-driving vehicle can be considered as an ideal pet. And when it ends its life, after an hour in the oven, it becomes a nutritious food.
