Feeding the fish in your pond could cease to be a tedious task with Fifer, the smart robot
Fifer, the smart robot that feeds your fish
Do you live by a pond or little lake but you are fed up of daily fish feeding? If only the could learn to eat just enough, it wouldn’t be necessary to pay so much attention. Unfortunately, you know that fish are quite capable of eating to death, and that’s not wildly exaggerating.
Young designer Ran Xiangfei has found the solution. It’s called Fifer and it’s a little smart robot, with a built-in food tank, which will do that boring fish feeding job for you.
Just leave Fifer floating on the water, on its own. At feeding time, it will send out sound waves to wide-awake the fish and attract them; then it somehow calculates the density of fish in the water and releases the optimal amount of food to feed them.
Fifer has other qualities: it sails, propels and moves itself around the pond, and best of all it’s also capable of monitoring the health of your fishies. Have you noticed the plant sprouting out its surface? If the plant grows nice and healthy, your fish are great; on the contrary, if the plant wilts, it means that something’s wrong on the pond.
We infer that it’s just a concept device by now, but keep it in mind if you’re thinking about installing a pond in your garden (if you’ve got a garden at all) or if you believe you could do business manufacturing and marketing it.
