芒种团队Mangzhong Team

在河南老家，每到芒种，我就帮家里收麦子。上交大以后，我一到暑假就往甘肃民勤跑，跟着志愿者在沙地里种梭梭。2023年秋天，我和几位同学决定给种树的人做件趁手的工具。给团队起名时，我想到了家乡麦收的那个节气。

第一台样机是我们在学校的学生创新中心搭起来的。大半年里，我们三次去腾格里沙漠调研、试机。手持钻头能把苗送进沙里，可装上车以后，还得有人跟着递苗。后来我们把苗预先排成卷，车上放四卷，一趟能带800株。

从民勤到阿拉善，一次次改下来，我们已经做出了治沙机器人的中试机型。我目前在上海交通大学内蒙古研究院工作，正和队友一起研发铺设麦草方格的设备，想让机器先把流沙稳住。在种植车上，我们着重缩短从送苗到栽下一株苗的时间，让车每天能多种些苗。

Growing up in Henan, I helped my family harvest wheat during Mangzhong, the solar term that marks the start of the grain harvest. As a student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, I spent my summers planting saxaul shrubs with volunteers in Minqin, Gansu. When several classmates and I set out to build a tool for the planters in autumn 2023, I named our team after that season.

We built our first prototype at the university’s Student Innovation Center and made three trips to the Tengger Desert in just over six months. Our handheld drill could release a seedling at depth. Once we mounted it on a vehicle, someone still had to walk alongside and feed it. We built a feeder that carries four reels, enough for 800 seedlings.

After field trials in Minqin and Alxa, we completed a pilot-scale desert planter. I now work at Shanghai Jiao Tong University’s Inner Mongolia Research Institute. My team and I are developing equipment to lay straw checkerboards that stabilize loose sand, and refining how we feed and plant each seedling to increase planting throughput.

去滩涂，也去温室 On tidal flats and in greenhouses

在外滩大会结识的保护区工作人员，邀我们到湛江滩涂看红树苗移栽。工人抱着苗在淤泥里拔脚很吃力，我们正沿用治沙机的供苗机构和中空钻头，另做一副船式底盘，让机器能载着苗下滩。

央视节目组牵线，我们走进南京溧水金色庄园的草莓棚，熟果往往藏在青果后面，摘下来又怕碰伤。我们正在设计一台采摘机器人，用六台相机找果，两侧的并联机械臂从旁绕入，摘下后轻放进软托。

Staff from the mangrove reserve whom we met at the INCLUSION Conference invited us to see how seedlings are transplanted on the tidal flats of Zhanjiang. After seeing workers struggle through deep mud with armfuls of seedlings, we began adapting our feeder and hollow drill to a hull-shaped chassis for the mudflats.

The CCTV production team introduced us to Golden Manor in Lishui, Nanjing, where ripe strawberries can hang behind unripe ones. We are designing a picker that uses six cameras to locate the ripe fruit and two delta arms to reach around neighboring berries and lower each one into a soft tray.
