Coming to a dirty beach near you soon! Thailand’s robotic trash collector

It could be the answer to Thailand’s dirty beaches – an eco-friendly robot trash cleaner made and designed by the kingdom’s own bright engineers.
The device – that only lacks a catchy name – was rolled out on YouTube in a video that showed its remarkable capabilities.
Powered by electricity the remote controlled robot quietly sifts the sand for all manner of rubbish including bottles buried under the surface.
Though it doesn’t seem to be smart enough to differentiate between shells and trash at this stage of development.
Described in a Daily News story as quick, efficient and compact the device can get into places other cleaners cannot.
And seeing as it was designed locally there is no need for expensive foreign imports.
It was designed by gas comapny PTT in collaboration with students at Songkhla Niran University in the south of Thailand.
Daily News said it would be ideal for clearing up after messy tourists.
