Eco Factor: Robot created from recycled materials.
Sam Todo, a young student from Togo, Africa, has created a fully-working robot made entirely from old TV parts and other used electronics. Dubbed SAM10, the fully-automatic robot will be able to greet people and also avoid objects in front of it.
Obsessed with building robots, Sam built his robot to be able to calculate the distance of an object in front of it. The inventor states that in Africa many young people are not interested in sciences and his work can change things by making people around him realize the importance of technology.
