I’m starting a new build-in-public project: oomwoo, an open-source robot vacuum you build yourself. Raspberry Pi, ROS 2, 2D LiDAR, Home Assistant, 3D printed, local-first — and open from the first commit.

    You can tell it’s a genuine high-quality open-source project because the name sucks

        OOMWOO just sounds like a fake AliExpress brand.

        It’s called OOMWOO in all caps dude. My idea is, call it literally anything else. Also I’m getting one

          The name apparently is a rotational ambigram. I would have sworn it was a transdimensional mammogram

          Something much better like eufy? Or roomba?

          I think it’s a law that robot vacuums must be named something silly.

          I have no objections. If it doesn’t connect to the wider internet, could be cool
