You can make your own open-sourced DIY micro version of Boston Dynamics' Robot Spot for a few hundred dollars. The design is actually very refined and the documentation is impressive. This is extremely scalable and could get out of hand quickly.

- fxtentacle 6y agoWow nice :) I can see that the idea is to use a simulator and reinforcement learning to train an AI to navigate unenven undergrounds. Another killer upgrade would probably be to add cameras and use SfM so that you have a 3D environment map for proactive movement planning.
