A 12-year-old Nigerian coder creates laundry-folding robot.
These kids in Nigeria have only been coding for a couple of years now, but they're already to the point where they're building their own machines to help them out with their everyday work.
Take for instance Fathia Abdullahi, who built a cheap robot to fold clothes. And it does so pretty fast!
She may just be twelve years old, but she's managed to put together an ingenious device that automatically folds clothes when you place them on the panels.
"I made it using pins, some beams, and an EV3 brick," she told Reuters. The EV3 brick here is a programmable circuit that works as the heart of LEGO's Mindstorms Education robots, meant to be robots kids can build and program themselves to carry out basic functions.
