Designer Gal Frenkel has created a robotic device that maintains and keeps outdoor decks in good shape. Dubbed the RoboDeck, this device is currently competing in the TechCrunch Disrupt Startup Battlefield competition that offers a 100,000 dollar prize to the winning design.
RoboDeck is designed to be sold as a subscription rather than a purchasable device. For a regular fee, the RoboDeck will clean and restain any outdoor deck. The cost of each customer's subscription will depend on the size of their deck and the amount of stain necessary to coat the whole surface. Gal Frenkel warns that RoboDeck is not designed to repair an extremely weathered deck and instead will keep a new deck in mint condition.
