PassivDom uses a 3D printing robot that can print the walls, roof, and floor of a 380-square-foot model home in about eight hours. When complete, the homes are autonomous and mobile, meaning they don't need to connect to external electrical and plumbing systems. https://futurism.com/a-robot-can-print-this-32000-house-in-as-little-as-8-hours/
WasteSharks are smart, solar-powered aqua drones that collect garbage from rivers, canals and harbors. They're designed for use in areas where waste is known to collect and increase their efficiency as they learn about each environment. The machine-learning capability, combined with on-board sensors and cameras, help keep the WasteSharks out of the way of larger crafts. Collected garbage is passed on to recycling and waste-management partners for processing. www.rantech.nl
