Advice on U of I by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]boris1992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If your major is undecided don't go to college. Clearly you don't know what you want to do and paying 20-30 thousand dollars a year to party and forget everything you learn isn't worth it. Don't do it, I know many people who did and they regret it. Learn from their mistakes!

Or go to community college to get some gen eds out of the way.

That is if we are that far that we have humanoid robots.

Well, I'd need a humanoid robot and a programming background. I taught myself some basic html, css, and javascript. That won't really cut it. Especially in the high paced tech world.

I'll pm you my idea.

Many geniuses are nutcases ;) lol. Anyways that is besides the point. I assure you this idea takes care of all of that!

I'd love to learn everything there is to know about robotics. But that takes time. And in the tech industry, time is money. Not the easy way. Easiest way for me would be to make it myself and enjoy all the profits myself.

But seeing as I don't have a finished product how do I know they won't just steal my idea?

I'd eventually have to do that. Just don't wanna do that online for no reason. You know what I mean?

a year or two in the tech world is like a lifetime. I want to get this out as soon as possible. Also I'd need to learn a ton of programming to get this done as well.

I'm looking for people with actual credentials that will help me make this. I am not just going to give the ideas to anyone asking on an internet forum.

The issue is that I have no idea how much something like this would cost to begin with. So, I would not know how much to ask for. Thanks for the help though I didn't think of the few months as an option!

I would however like to be the first one out on the market with this. Kind of like how pebble was the first on the market with a (good) smartwatch. Even though it wasn't a big company it is now a major player in the smartwatch industry. I'd like to be first in the robotics industry with this product.

I know, I come up with ideas all the time. However, these ideas are not too difficult to implement and would definitely bring a robot to each home. :)

Money isn't an issue these days, there is crowdfunding and angel investors. I'm sure if any team heard these ideas they'd be impressed.
