Transcript: Roomba pooper scooper. This robot automatically detects dog waste in your yard and scoops it up. Beetl Robotics created this poop-scooping bot to help people around the house. It works by taking multiple photos of the yard and uploading them to the cloud. The cloud system identifies the dog feces and sends info back to Beetl to pick it up. Beetl navigates to the location and uses a pick and lift mechanism. The waste is dropped into an in-ground composter. No word yet on when this handy robot will go on sale.
