I love the slow-mo shot of it coming up out of the grain!
What is the purpose of this?
I have no idea what its purpose is, but the little guy sure looks like it is having fun
Thanks. But what does it actually do?
From the website: "The Grain Weevil is a grain bin safety and management robot that directly engages the surface of the grain. Grain bins are dirty, dangerous workplaces. We keep that farmer with a shovel out of the bin by leveling, breaking crusts, doing inspections and feeding grain into the extraction augers."
