Post Description

I had quite a lot of fun making quadrotor simulation work with Three.js and python simulation backend through pydiode.

I wonder what others have done with their drone simulations? What are interesting questions in this area for other people? like optimal energy use, optimal time to maneuver from A to B, or anyone used agents/LLMs inside the controller? Looking for suggestions

Blog and other OpenClaw features without a language model

This intentionally avoids generative LLMs and instead stitches together Whisper, Piper, spaCy, VADER, sumy and YOLO into a deterministic, local assistant — a practical tradeoff that kills API bills and prompt-injection risk. The blog feature (extractive summarization + site crawling) is an especially smart move: it produces usable titles/content without hallucination. It won't replace creative LLM outputs, but for offline, private automation this is a refreshingly pragmatic build.
