#JAMR went out for its first test run tonight with a piece of wood for a plow blade. Manual control only for now. It pushed #snow for 45 minutes. Battery state unknown since I just updated #ROS2 to kilted kaiju. Not bad! It may actually be useful. JAMR = Just Another Multipurpose #Robot. #robotics #hudsonvalley

#JAMR is getting close to motion. The 100 amp bus is roughed in. Still a very very long way from autonomous operation.

Welp, the wooden #JAMR of last winter is slowly morphing into the metal JAMR of this winter that is going to plow my driveway.

Once I tally up the expenses I will discover that for the same money I could have paid a guy to shovel my driveway for 10+ years!

But thatโ€™s not the point, is it? ๐Ÿฆง๐ŸŒ

Ok. Time to give #JAMR (Just Another Multipurpose #Robot an upgrade from the wooden test chassis to an aluminum one. I really want it to plow the snow off my driveway this winter.
