I get it that autonomous cars are super cool, but it solves the problem of a human being not wanting to drive.
Autonomous solutions for farm vehicles is far more important and necessary and urgent, but how come driverless cars are more important than the problem of growing food?
I am really struggling with understanding some of the responses/reactions to my queries for farm robots. It all comes down to $$. Some firms won't even give me a quote. They simply tell me to wait till autonomous vehicles becomes mainstream and robotics tech would become more accessible(I don't necessarily agree with this). I don't get it. It's food! Everyone needs it. Like..literally..every single person needs to eat. Not everyone needs to own a driverless car.
I guess I understand the reasoning why farmers are less important than those who can afford 100k cars that drive themselves, but I can't grasp the logic or rationality behind it.
I have some funds but everyone wants to know how much I can spend without giving me a quote. That makes no sense to me. If I were in a farmers market and a customer walks by my stall..and wants to know how much the tomatoes cost, I don't ask them how much they have in their wallet..I tell them how much it costs and they buy if they can..yea?
But let me tell you, this doesn't happen when a farmer approaches an engineering company to design a farm bot.
What am I doing wrong?
