For the last year and a half, I’ve gotten into a little robotics as a hobby. It’s not a major hobby. I don’t carve out much time to do it, but I squeeze it in between family and work when I can. A few minutes here or an hour there. Or more, if I’m on a roll. But sometimes I can go weeks without touching the robot.
I reached a milestone today when, finally, I was able to drive my robot around the house while sitting at a table, using an old MacBook Pro and a WiFi connection to the robot to control it.
Also, I started a new, public blog about the work, in case other hobbyists might be interested.
