Hello all!
I have been doing some research on machine learning and want to dedicate this summer to making something out of what I learned. I want to make a robot that can use computer vision and lidar technology to navigate itself and perform tasks via vocal commands. Think of it almost as a house pet of sorts you don't have to feed but can train (ex: show it what a human looks like or different fruit), improve over time (ex: adding hardware and software), and play with(ex: just tinker with). I have looked into SBC like Nvidias JETSON Nano 2GB Developer Kit and a few more but some, if not all seem, to be above my budget. I was wondering if there is a platform with similar capabilities at a cheaper price point, preferably less than $150. My request comes with ignorance of the topic, what I mean is I don't exactly know what to look for or at the least optimize my search for a good platform. Thank you for any reply, I really appreciate it!
