  • Its about generalization. A robot like this only works in a very controlled environment. Any unforeseen variable will completely stop it in its tracks. To be able to do a trade job it would need to be much more flexible. Good luck building a single machine that can work outdoors, in heat, in snow, in rain, in mud, in a sewer, in a narrow cable or pipe shaft, buy material, analyze problems, drive to its work site, verify results, deal with customers, etc. One human can do all those things and much cheaper and more reliably than any robot or swarm of robots ever could. The real world is messy and complex, not a show room prepped to only include problems the machine can solve.








  • Is there supposed to be a fixed schedule?

    Also considering the ability to update maps seperately from the app now, it would be dope to have a map autoupdate feature. But i dont want to update all my maps for areas i rarely visit so it should be selective so you can mark individual regions that should always be kept up to date. I havent checked the issues yet, maybe it was already requested.
