My plan is to use this M5stack robot with LIDAR and a Raspberry Pi

Dig the two way wheels. Have you figured out the lidar yet?

Yes, that is where I bought the robot.

Yes, I have the LIDAR working! The M5stack is a very cool hardware package. It can run basic SLAM and output it to it’s LED screen!

Once I get everything figure out I will try to add voice control to my humanoid robots.

Those are mecanum wheels. They are kind of awesome. Never seen them called McNamm wheels before though. I’ve also got mycroft intents sending requests to a moving robot.

I had to give up on the mic on the robot as it was useless if the motors were moving. So I used a second pi and contacted an http service on the robot.
