BloomBot is an all-wheel drive robot designed to create large-scale land art. It has 6 tubes that can be filled with different types of seeds to plant flowers, grains of rice, or other types of plants. It is capable of climbing a 40 degree incline under full load.

In fact, the robot above is a watered-down version of the initial idea, which was not feasible as a college student with a limited budget. Here's the initial concept, with a rather gratuitous render:
