LeLamp: An Animated Desktop Robot Lamp
Scobleizer · x · 2026-07-17
Someone shared LeLamp, a desktop robot lamp featuring expressions, movements, and personality. It's an open-source design, meaning you can theoretically build one yourself. The post also makes an interesting point: the future of home robots might not start with humanoids. Instead, it could begin with small, everyday objects that people actually want on their desks and enjoy looking at every day.
