  • Looks like it smeared the coffee all over the floor to me.

    It'll be a long time before robots replace my children as my house keepers.

    That's why you have children right, so when they get old enough, they do all the housework, right?

  • good but it needs a way of detecting stains, i did some lego robots in a course and we used light sensors for the robot to determine what surface it was crossing. they should work that into it

see all

  • @smukase Actually water is very cheap, and if you have a washing machine then a dishwasher is very affordable. Or do you do the laundry by the river?

  • @datsomedimsum oh u mean that big ass expensive piece of shit that makes ur water bill go crazy? no thank you. i need a fucking humanoid thing that can do the dishes, k? now move along

  • @smukase it's called a dish washer in what year do you live?

  • @viyonzero97 apples and pears.

    one is a vacuum cleaner (carpets mostly) the other a mopper (hardwood floors mostly).

  • this things a joke compared to the roomba

  • this is nothing. i want a robot that can do the f*** dishes cuz am f*** sick of them!

  • better than this, attach a sweep to the back of your dog, and itll just run around with it -.-

  • will the mint work in multiple room if u move the sensor or will it remember the old room and get confused

  • @NikoKun The idea is to keep the costs down so it can be affordable as a consumer appliance. It's harder to accomplish those that tasks you list in the real world.  I'm guessing like most aspiring computer scientists you still live in the digital world where things are ideal. Think about it. Vision system on a little box with batteries. What the hect is a dirt/mess sensor? Invent one (affordable) and you will be a super millionaire, guranteed. Not that easy in RL. ;)

  • i thought it was a robot that cleaned mints. miss leading title!
