  Turtle needs a laser upgrade module. Turtles with frickin’ lasers on their heads.

  @zivzulanderto be fair, it probably has a few lasers all over for things like distance and proximity measuring.

I thought it was a sea turtle with speakers for pool parties. But helping the ocean is good too.

Good intentions don’t guarantee good results, this might be prime example. 😅

I am “generally” not a fan of robots (giving myself some wiggle room here)..😅
HOWEVER,, if this sea turtle robot will help to eventually clean up our oceans I’m definitely for it. What I worry about is technology getting so out of hand, which it’s now doing, that people are losing their livelihoods.

Looks like an animal ≠ less disruptive.

In fact if anything it would probably end up being more disruptive messing with other animal behaviours.

I can’t imagine what will see, hear, and smell this robot .. and say, “no, it’s shaped like a turtle … that’s one of us.”

Making this look like a turtle is for human benefit. Making it look more abstract to get the job done likely wouldn’t change how wildlife reacts to this.

I think it will get assaulted by male turtles, chewed on by sharks and barnacles will cover that solar panel within months.
