Great King Kizer Recycles Texas Trash
     



Our friend Norri Kageki of the GetRobo blog travelled to
Houston, TX
for the All-Earth Ecobot
Challenge, an ecology-themed robot contest sponsored by local
education foundations and city governments. Norri acted as translator
for well-known Japanese ROBO-ONE participant Naoki Maru, who was a
special guest at the event. But Norri also had time to post photos and
video as well as write up a nice report on the contest. You can read all
the Ecobot
Challenge details in the GetRobo blog. In the video above, Naoki's
robot, Great King Kizer, uses image recognition to autonomously sorts trash
into appropriate recycle bins.
