I'm working on a robotics ai project as a hobbyist and I was really surprised at how affordable some of these quadruped robots have become. The one I would like to eventually try is between $1600 and $2k (USD) but the models in the $500-$1000 look darn good to. Having smaller boards for multiple ai processes to run together is really changing th feasibility of projects quickly.
