WATCH: The ACT government has invested in a couple of line-marking robots to mark out their sportsgrounds. Reece is one of them.
Transcript
00:00G'day, I'm Robot Rees and I'll be marking your lines today at a ground near you.
00:07Well, that is Robot Rees. I call him other things when he plays up, but that's his real name.
00:16All I need is a tub of paint and then I'm on my way.
00:21It takes me just 34 minutes to mark out a rugby field. That's once my mate Brendan has helped me out.
00:28So yeah, it's called plotting. So we go to where the goal posts are and then we back the machine up to where the jet is that goes on the ground and then we plot it against the post.
00:38And that way when the robot comes up to it, it'll stop before it, turn around and then it backs up so it won't hit any of the posts.
00:46Then it'll go around to the inside and then paint the inside and then go around to the other side.
00:51And yeah, so by collecting all the four posts and then that also makes it perfectly square.
00:56So if our goal posts are out at either end, the field will readjust so it makes it square on the ground.
01:02Well, I'd better get back to it. Thanks for stopping by.
01:08I'll see you next time.
01:14So you've got to go.
