Developer builds autonomous stack for 450-pound 4WD robot using LLM and ROS
What happened
A developer is building an autonomous stack for a 450-pound 4WD robot with an approximately 80kW drivetrain: dual NVIDIA Orin AGX units run vision and the LLM respectively, paired with lidar, depth cameras and a ReSpeaker microphone array, with motors controlled via a Teensy 4.1, aiming to run voice commands locally offline. The project has already consumed billions of tokens. The developer says the main concern is the difficulty of finding a safe testing site; heat dissipation has also become an issue after the electronics were packed into a 12"×4", 18-inch-long aluminum tube.
