Kubonakala sengathi uColin Angle , umsunguli we-iRobot, inkampani ethandwa kakhulu ngenxa yesihlanzi saso serobhothi iRoomba, unesithukuthezi empilweni yakhe yansuku zonke, okuwukuphela kwencazelo esenza siqonde ukuthi kungani eqale ukusebenza ekwakhiweni nasekudalweni kwerobhothi elisha elihlukile kancane kuma-vacuum cleaner akhe athakazelisayo njengoba, kulokhu, lizobe liphethe ukubamba izinhlanzi.
Iqiniso liwukuthi leli robhothi okwamanje libhekwa njengelinye lamathemba ambalwa esinawo okubamba izinhlobo zezinhlanzi ezihlaselayo njenge-Lionfish , isilwane esisongela kakhulu izinhlobo zasendaweni emanzini aseBermuda futhi okunzima kakhulu ukusibamba.
Le robhothi ene-gripper yisixazululo esifanelekile sokuqeda iziQhingi zeBermuda zeLionfish
Mhlawumbe isici esithakazelisa kakhulu sokuthuthuka kwerobhothi sisembonweni ongemuva kwaleli robhothi, owaqala engqondweni kaColin Angle ngesikhathi evakashele eBermuda. Phakathi nalolu hambo, umqondisi uchaze ukuthi ama-lionfish ayehlasela amabhishi eziqhingini futhi ebulala izinhlobo zamatshe asolwandle endawo ngenxa yolaka lwawo.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngemva kokwenza ucwaningo olulula, kwaqashelwa ukuthi ngenxa yokuthi kunzima kakhulu ukuzibamba , naphezu kokukwazi ukubeka amaqanda afinyelela ezigidini ezimbili ngonyaka, izindawo zokudlela azikwazi ukuthola izinhlanzi ezintsha ezanele futhi isidingo sazo sikhula njalo.
Isixazululo sale nkinga siza ngesimo serobhothi elihlonyiswe ngezinsimbi ngaphambili, okuthi uma lithintwa yizinhlanzi, zibathuse ngogesi bese zibamunca ngaphakathi.
Njengoba ubona ezithombeni, uhlobo lokuqala lwale robhothi seluvele luhlolwa, futhi okugqamile ubulula balo, kokubili ngokusebenza kwalo kanye nezinto ezisetshenziswayo. UColin Angle ngokwakhe unencazelo yalokhu: bekungeke kube nangqondo ukunikeza irobhothi elingamadola ayisigamu sesigidi ukwenza lo msebenzi ngoba akekho umthengi ozoba nentshisekelo. Ngakho-ke, bebesebenza ekwakheni iyunithi entengo yayo, uma isifikile emakethe, izoba cishe u-$1.000.
