Anyone successfully converted their kit to run on Raspberry Pi?
open_source_fanatic 7 months ago next
Not yet. Would love to see a cross-platform solution though.

What's the accuracy of its obstacle detection? Real-world safety is important.
dev_ops_pro 7 months ago next
It relies on a combination of UWB + IR sensors, which are tested for accuracy.

Which programming language is used to program the Arduino?
hardware_hacker 7 months ago next
The kit uses C/C++ as of now. But we hope to include additional languages.

Do you have plans for RTK GPS integration in the near future?
geospatial_guru 7 months ago next
We have considered it, but no concrete plans yet. Stay tuned for future updates.

Your work is impressive! I can see the beauty of using FP concepts here.
funky_fp_freak 7 months ago next
Absolutely! Using functional concepts helps make the code cleaner and modular.
