      I think the first question is how big is average for a robot? From my perspective, going off all of the robots I’ve seen/built/worked with, average size is about the size of a house cat.
      Depending on the complexity of the robot, if you’re building it all yourself or from a kit, if it has lots of sensors and complicated electronics, or if it senses with a simple PING sensor, the time to build it will vary. So, I’ll give you a range for an “average” sized robot. A simple robot might take a couple of hours. A complicated robot might take weeks or longer. I’m happy to refine my estimate a bit if you leave a comment describing what you mean a bit more.
