What are you getting out of this though? Do you think this robot is going to have some kind of positive economic impact? Will you turn it into a business? Do you anticipate it will solve a personal need, like folding your laundry for you? Because a lot of people do robot projects in their free time to learn, but you're doing it without the learning part...so what's the point?

It's a hack. Not everything has to have commercial value, not everything has to solve a need, there's no inherent purpose in anything, this is just how I choose to spend my time.
