Building an Open-Source Robot Vacuum — Meet OOMWOO - Makers Pet

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.

  Also there are for sure some alternative bags, I just didn’t put time in to find them.
