Who wouldn't love a giant plant-filled robot watching over their park? The Plant O Bot was created for a mascot competition for Central Park in Jakarta, Indonesia. Created by Bharoto Yekti, this little guy features a simple, yet appealing design that can be enjoyed by children and adults alike.
I personally think the Plant O Bot would make for a great indoor planter. Those who like to have flowers or miniature gardens year round would love a design like this where you can plant seeds in the robot's head and watch him grow some wild green hair like a futuristic Chia Pet.
