Dog poop collecting Rover

Hi, I’m contemplating building a rover to autonomously collect dog poo from the backyard and deposit it in the garden. I’m thinking of using Ardupilot Rover and TinyML machine learning video application to identify the poo. I have never built any Ardupilot project before. Is Ardupilot Rover suited to this type of application? Any tips or tricks?

Focus on Ardupilot first, it can be quite overwhelming to newcomers on its own. But do keep in mind that you will need a free UART port to connect your companion computer to later.

hoverboards are great for building rovers, you can pick them up for really cheap and they have a lot of power.
