^^
Did you write this with ai ?

Alphabyte3:
I wrote it by myself and used AI to correct the errors and added somethings to the content.

airsaylongcome:
You need to learn Raspberry pi? What's up with that?

Alphabyte3:
Raspberry pi is an essential component in robotics. I meant you need to learn how to use it .

airsaylongcome:
So Linux basically. Yeah true.

Not easy to learn robotics in Naija sha. Hardware costs dey put people off

Edit: While Pis are the behomoth in that space, there are loads of other Single Board computers (Banana Pi, Odroid etc) that can also play the role.

Alphabyte3:
It is possible to build a robot on any os depending on the microprocessor like Mac , Linux and windows based on the chipset.
It cost about 2.5M to learn the basics of robotics In Nigeria and isn't the international standard knowledge to work for big tech .The main reason I said 5million naira and above .
The only way to make money in robotics In Nigeria is to open a training center for adults and kids with cutting edge technology .


The main reason robotics Startups in China and US partner with themselves , university, companies ,research institute and government (military) to cut cost .

airsaylongcome:
Break that 2.5mili down. What and what makes the cost of learning get to that figure? I have a small robot vehicle chassis and some RPis laying about. Wanted to get into Computer Vision for robotic vehicles but got distracted and abandoned it. Maybe 2.5m will be enough motivation to get back in

Alphabyte3:
I have these an idea using radar ,sonar and lidar with 3d real time reconstruction of the object using Opencv and tensor flow with enhanced HDR camera that can zoom in an out .

Some potential applications of this technology could include autonomous vehicle navigation, search and rescue operations, environmental monitoring and industrial inspections. Overall, this project has the potential to push the boundaries of object detection and analysis technology.


I advice you to invest on other projects robotics is still in growing slowly except training institute .


Terabytes data+ other cost - 500k
Components /tools + 500k
Tuition 1.5m

airsaylongcome:
Radar, sonar and lidar hardware cost no go be here o. Good stuff though. Maybe I will plan some personal project around this for Q4

Shomek:
Nice one
I love this.

Alphabyte3:
Thanks bro AI is cool some problems in Nigeria can be solved by it .

Alphabyte3:
All what I just said is for experts children should start with scratch it is a no code tool that helps understand coding robots by utilizing block coding .


Get started with scratch

Arduino Ventuno Q a platform for systems that interact with the physical environment: robots, autonomous devices, and sensor complexes the capacity is 40 TOPS.

The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and Large Language Models (LLMs) as a service (MaaS) represents a significant evolution in the field of robotics. As these advanced AI models become increasingly powerful, they could serve as the "brain" of robotic systems, enabling them to perform a wide range of complex tasks with greater autonomy and efficiency. MaaS is models as services.
