这篇文章描述了设计师和科学家/工程师之间合作产生的一组对象。他们探索了一种将机器人带入家庭环境的替代方法，探索了可能会在家中与人类共生的美学和功能。它们都是基于生物燃料电池技术，生物燃料电池通过微生物对生物物质的作用来发电。这些机器人在家庭环境中捕捉动物害虫，并利用燃料电池产生的电力来引导自主生存。
This paper describes a group of objects produced as a collaboration between designers and scientists/engineers. They explore an alternative approach to bringing robots into the domestic environment, exploring both the aesthetics and functionality that may elicit a symbiotic coexistence with humans in their homes. They are all based on the technology of biological fuel cells, which generate electricity by the action of micro-organisms on biological matter. The robots trap animal pests in the domestic environment and use the electricity produced by the fuel cells to lead autonomous existences.
