Favorite robot of the day - Le Petit Prince

A robot that searches out the best place for it's little vegetable symbiont is my pick of best robot of the day.



But what if instead the plant wasn't a passenger, but actually part of the robot itself? The plant would be a central feature in it's bio-feedback system, controlling the robot to work with the rest of a cybernetic grove that migrate along the high Martian plateau.

A new species of green intelligence for the old planet of Barsoom. Now that's a grove-intelligence construct that I want to see.
