plowing snow is SO uncivilized


WIWI: Your tools are neither cute, nor sentient enough.

Yuki-Taro is an autonomous snowplow robot with a GPS brain and camera eyes (yes, its eyes are functional). Yuki doesn't simply push snow around like you would with your primitive shovel or snowblower; nay, it actually finds snow to eat, compresses the powdery substance into convenient rectangular blocks in its body, and poops them out the back so its ape-like master can come pick the blocks up later for easy disposal or alternate uses such as cooling or refrigeration.
