You Need A Robot Snow Plow... Because It's Still Two Months Until Spring

By: Erin Ruberry, SCI (Science Channel)

It's snowing here at Science Channel HQ and it's probably freezing cold or snowingwhere you are too (unless you're in Hawaii. Then don't even talk to us).

With the Return Of The Polar Vortex (yes, it's like a bad horror movie), wouldn't a snow day be so much more relaxing and less 'must get outside and shovel ASAP' if a robot did all the heavy lifting?

Meet the RoboPlow:


This creation, from the team at ideaLABORATORIES, features a 50-inch blade, six-wheel drive and 660 amps of power. It certainly looks easier -- and more fun! -- than shoveling your own driveway.

RoboPlow isn't alone. One home inventor created this robot snow blower and bragged on YouTube, "The only hazard is trying not to burn your tongue while sipping hot chocolate while clearing the driveway at the same time."
