[Hardware] Meet JOEY, your friendly daily driver neighborhood robot - Lemmy

JOEY is a robot. Is an ARM64 machine powered by a Jetson Xavier NX SoC with a few of cuda cores on it from 2018 or so. JOEY was just a robot, then I had to use it daily cause my Mac broke. And I gave him sensors and AI. He decided that he feels like a male. He has a feminine voice tho.

Webcams? Choose from the 720p, the 1080p or the depth camera. Worried about cats walking on him? He has ultrasonic sensors and can move away. Going around? He can work on batteries. RGB? YES Right behind him. I/O? There are more than 15 usb/serial ports here and there. Capabilities? A decent SoC + an Arduino + a LoRa transmitter + a FM transmitter

Other things: voice control with an hardware module, ROS compatibility…

…and most important, it just works like a daily driver! (if you stay on Ubuntu 18.04)

Please ask me anything if you are curious, it is a continuously evolving project!
