> 2.5 feet is probably the smallest you could go for such a project. you think that might be more reasonable whether it's 1 foot or 6 feet, you'll need to assemble it, program it, and make sure it functions mechanically. that filters out many anons. i have a fairly high degree of technical skill and that's a big ask for me. the average anon lusting after a robot waifu has no chance. >  gy1zuj2rm&t=113s > would they need to be? once one person figures it out and posts instructions and the required code it will be much easier for anyone who follows. but can they follow those instructions? do they know how to load bios and an os onto a drive? do they know how to set up ai locally? do they know how to sodder? do they know how to use tools to assemble mechanical parts? the list goes on.  i can maybe do some of those things but again, it's a real chore. i'm someone with some technical know-how. for the average pleb, you may as well ask them to perform brain surgery. there needs to be a high-speed low-drag alternative, otherwise, it'll remain a hobbyist-walled garden of sorts like the kit car scene. i don't think commissioning private techs will be an option for most guys. we need a mass-produced alternative. if you feel like you have the technical skill to put one together yourself, go for it.
