Like a snowplow? I guess it would work if you made a few passes but that thing isn’t very wide. Curious machine. Wonder why they wouldn’t just have it collect the dirt and poop.
It’s a lane wide and we’re talking about a LOT of shit, mud, debris, clothes, rotting food, etc. You couldn’t be collecting it. Flinging it into the gutter was state of the art.
In addition this was a proof of concept. Collection adds a great deal of mechanical complexity and the funders of the project may not have cared about that.
Their tech demo was clearing a path for a patrician lady to walk without besmirching the hem of her dress.
