Building a robotics research setup that lives next to my desk

The article discusses building a low-cost robotics research setup for a single person, comparing it to a more expensive setup from the author's previous work at OpenAI. The author is seeking feedback on several design decisions, including the choice of single arm vs. bimanual setup, camera calibration, and sensor type. The author is also choosing not to use ROS 2 and instead building their own stack. This setup aims to enable meaningful work on robotics problems with a single person.
