I'd never thought anyone even attempting such a feat, interesting that you went all the way to mechanically actuate levers. Nice job.

But... I assume you're intending to run on extremely large sites such as highway construction, open pit mines and the likes primarily? Because my experience (if a bit dated cough) is running small 750kg baby excavators under sometimes extreme space constraints - digging trenches for telco in urban and rural areas, which often enough meant having to work with 5-10 cm distance to walls, lighting posts or other infrastructure, and directly next to workers shoving soil into the bucket. Will you add stuff like 360° camera vision, LIDAR etc. to make that safe and help a remote/AI operator, or are you planning on large sites with less danger potential only?
