## What it is
OOMWOO is an open-source DIY robot vacuum cleaner built with a Raspberry Pi, ESP32, Arduino, 3D-printed chassis, and 2D LiDAR for SLAM-based mapping and autonomous navigation via ROS2/Nav2. It works locally without cloud dependency and integrates natively with Home Assistant.

## Use cases
- build your own open-source robot vacuum cleaner
- DIY lidar SLAM navigation robot for home cleaning
- control a robot vacuum locally with Home Assistant without cloud
- 3D print and assemble a hackable vacuum robot
- simulate a robot vacuum in Gazebo with ROS2
- learn robotics by building a ROS2-powered home robot

## When to choose
- you want a fully open, hackable, cloud-free robot vacuum you build yourself
- you want a hands-on robotics project using ROS2, LiDAR SLAM, and 3D printing
- you need local Home Assistant control with no vendor lock-in

## When to avoid
- you want a ready-made, polished vacuum that works out of the box
- you cannot source parts, 3D print, or follow early-stage build instructions
- you need a finished product now - the project is in early development with build instructions not yet complete
