About

The Feldfreund Dev Kit is an open-source platform for autonomous outdoor robotics developed by Zauberzeug GmbH. Built on RoSys, an all-Python robot system framework with built-in simulation, hardware abstraction, and a real-time web interface via NiceGUI. Time-critical and safety-critical behavior runs on the microcontroller via Lizard, a domain-specific language for embedded hardware control.

Our agricultural weeding robot Feldfreund is based on this platform and is intended to advance organic and regenerative agriculture.

This documentation is currently work in progress while we expand this library.

Stay tuned and please report any issues on Github.
