Hacker upgrades DIY robot with LLM, web search, and tool calling
wavefnx · x · 2026-11-02
wavefnx firmware-upgraded their DIY robot prototype: it now has LLM, internet, and web search access, can show images and call tools, with responses normally going through a speaker (not yet connected). The screen transcript suggests the mic/STT pipeline works cleanly. More custom commands and a new case are coming.
