I’m clearing out my workshop and giving away a bunch of wheeled robots, all in good condition, that I won’t have time to use. These are free to a good home, but you must be willing to pick them up in the San Francisco Bay Area, either in East Bay or Palo Alto. DM me on Twitter/X or LinkedIn if you’d like something, and I’ll update the post as they go to show what’s still available.
Sadly, this is only about 30% of my collection. I may have a bit of a robot car addiction.

This is Musher.io, a very nice robot car with all the fixin’s from the University of Washington. It’s $1,000 worth of gear, from the Jetson Nano to the lidar, depth camera, VESC motor controller and fast and robust RC car chassis. ROS-based.

Hello!!! I am very interested, specially the tinkergen (or any other you suggest).I know you said have to be able to pick up but I am from Brazil. I would be willing to pay for shipping. I am a huge tech enthusiast , learning AI and I would never be able to even get close to one of those here. I can also donate it later to a tech school for less fortunate children, I’d say was your donation if you would like. Any sort of arrangements, please let me know. Thank you for reading my message.
Juilana,
Happy to make an exception for you. Just email with your address and I’ll take care of the shipment of the Tinkergen. No charge!
