That’s why two artists from Perdue University created the Soybot, a planter box on a small mobile robot that moves plants around throughout the day so they get the ideal sun exposure. Essentially, it’s a flowerpot on a Roomba, but it takes the guess work out of where to put your plants to make them happiest.
