Natural Deselection is an instrument that competes plants against each other. The device empowers plants to control the fate of others using sensors and mechanised shears in a Darwinian race for survival. The sensors set above the plants detect the first to grow to a specified height, at which point it is saved, and the others fatally chopped.

Not what I would call natural selection. Natural selection is a bit more complex than the old saying, survival of the fittest.
Anyway, interesting machine though.
This is a brilliant work of art. A lot of companies treat their workers like that.
It is more like a horticultural version of the SAW movies than natural selection.
I must admit my immediate first impression was also the SAW movies.
