| + | # Roomba Rover History |
| + | |
| + | # Early Days |
| + | |
| + | When the roomba rover website was first publicly available, as a single roomba that users could control, the entire server was physically placed on the roomba. |
| + | |
| + | When the server would shut off, lose wifi, or otherwise disconnect, carpet's reverse proxy would show a simple text message stating that the roomba rover is not available or something like that lol. |
| + | |

| + | # Dawn of Multi-Roomba-Rover |
| + | |
| + | Eventually, after uh.. i think there were problems or something i dont remember lol, carpet sought out to revamp the roomba rover design, to both improve the design, and allow for multiple rovers, using a central distribution server to connect to a smaller "thin client" on each roomba. |
| + | |
| + | He first sought out to put ESP32's on the roombas, however, ~~chatgpt~~ carpet had too many problems with making that work. the big issue was that control would randomly cut out a lot. |
| + | |
| + | He then moved on to a setup which used a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W on each roomba, which handled R/C controls, video streaming (with a raspberry pi camera), and as would eventually be added later, audio streaming, TTS & other sound effects. |
| + | |
| + | The first roomba was built, [Freaky](https://wiki.otter.land/Freaky%20(Roomba)%20(AKA%20Freakier)). |
