More seriously - there are a surprisingly large number of groups out there building robots and looking for help. Some groups already have not-built-here syndrome, but our hope is that by being a free thing you can just initially build on people will be "Polymath Native."
Your sim question is especially poignant. Our sales line is that reconciling sim:reality is our problem to solve for you. The more real answer is that we're specifically focused on vehicles in environments that are "relatively clean" - i.e. controlled (even if, in fact, they're a landfill). We're also only really selling to technical users - who are hopefully sophisticated to solve >0% of the problems.
