FroboMind

FroboMind is a conceptual architecture for field robots. The idea is to use the same generic architecture on all field robots and hereby maximizing efficiency, reliability, modularity, extendability and code reuse. FroboMind is open source and is implemented in Robot Operating System. The project includes  ASuBot , a research project focusing on weeding in organic orchards,  Armadillo , a tracked toolcarrier within precision navigation in row crops,  Casmobot , a semi-autonomous slope mower, and  Hortibot , a tool carrier capable of traversing a field of row crops.
