The robot I am starting to build is scratch built think. My idea is its going to be a platform to expand and experiment on.
My idea is a roaming guard unit, cat pisser offer, companion (get info off the net with voice commands) remote presence, and or helping hand like transporting something from room to room ie laundry.
The picture is just the base to start with.
