I forgot about LIDAR, in that case, my estimate was too low. LIDAR stuff is expensive, even the lowest end stuff is thousands.

- dirktheman 8y agoAn agricultural grade LIDAR sensor (for drones) costs $250-$500. I wouldn't trust it in my Tesla, but for a DIY Spot Mini clone it'll do. Still, that's just the sensor...
- PostOnce 8y ago(based on my very small amount of knowledge) -- the LIDAR in the recent SpotMini video looks high res/high quality -- would a cheap one mean mis-stepping on stairs? I imagine problems of quality abound for less than several thousand
- look_lookatme 8y agoCan you buy one of these with an SDK?
- dirktheman 8y agoYou'd have to roll your own... there are libraries for Raspberry Pi and Arduino though.
