FarmBot is an open source, CNC style agricultural technology that autonomously cares for your garden. There is no engineering or programming experience required to use FarmBot. You can simply plan your garden with the FarmBot app, and the FarmBot can perform certain activities, such as seeding, watering, and weeding.

The MAE 156B Aerial Farming team is working to develop a cable driven FarmBot, as opposed to a rigid frame FarmBot, in order to increase overall flexibility of the system and reduce garden design constraints, such as vegetation height and garden plot shape or size. This cable driven system is intended for advanced users with a more experienced skillset.
