I’m a mechatronics engineering graduate with very little work experience. I’m also about to complete my masters. I’m telling these because I’m actually not that unfamiliar with technology but there are some things that I need to be explained like I’m 5.
Why is it that hard for a non-developed country to produce technology? How hard could it be to do a robotic vacuum cleaner? It’s not like starting from scratch. There’s years of know-how of humankind and it shouldn’t be that hard to reach that information.
We design and implement some simple robots as engineering students. One of them was a robot gripper. Nothing fancy but it was able to grip sensitive objects without harming them.
I don’t understand how a country with unlimited resources, compared to us some students, can’t produce at least this level of technology? I am pretty sure that they can but there must be something that’s preventing them from doing.
Edit: Forgot to add, I’m not living in a developed country.

If you want to make a robot cleaner and sell it on the market, you don’t just need to make the cleaner, you need to make it cheaper or better than cleaners that are made by companies with years or decades of experience. You need to catch up, and it’s hard to do without protectionism of the country. But protective measures are usually hitting the low income people first.
