The viral meme about "fluff-suckers," created by neural networks and taking over social media, has found physical embodiment. Blogger City On360 assembled a miniature, about 20–30 centimeters long, working model of this device by printing parts on a 3D printer.

The result is a three-wheeled, remotely controlled device that outwardly resembles its giant virtual "counterparts." It doesn't vacuum streets on an industrial scale but simulates collecting poplar fluff, more like a fun toy or a proof-of-concept.

The humorous concept, first born from marketers' imagination and then by algorithms, has come full circle and turned into a real, albeit toy, mechanism.

According to Mash Money experts, one real "fluff-sucker" would cost from 7 to 12 million rubles. One working day of such a robot could cost approximately 60 thousand rubles.

The viral video about "fluff-suckers" provoked the appearance of an interactive game in Yandex search. A surge of interest in this topic was noted at the beginning of the month: if on June 3 users made about 5 thousand queries, the next day their number grew to 23 thousand.
