The correct option is A EcoBot III
  • EcoBot III is a lightweight self-sustaining robot that runs off human waste, using it to produce electricity necessary for performing its cleaning task.
  • The main objective of the project was to create a self-sufficient machine with an onboard fluid circulation that would collect energy from its environment and get rid of its own waste.
  • The robot is only about 6 kg and consists of the ingestion, artificial digestion and solid waste excretion mechanism.
