The trick is to make a robot that has a Lidar and a camera, then train a model that can replace the Lidar. (Lidar can of course also be echolocation).

- ThatMedicIsASpy 7mo agoI thought the trick is just to use an xbox kinect. But lidar got a lot cheaper in the recent years.
- infecto 7mo agoThe harder trick is to do it cost effectively. I picked up my Roborock for $200 and it has LiDAR. Works really well.

- infecto 7mo agoI don’t follow models and there are a ton of them. Here is an example $280 version with lidar. https://a.co/d/0cuCgBSZ https://a.co/d/0cuCgBSZ
- indraneelpatil 7mo agoYeah this would help a lot to collect good trainable data, teleoperating the robot around and collecting large amount of good data is quite hard
