The Solar Farming Revolution: Support Acorn and Empower Farmers Worldwide
Hello everyone, I am the developer and maintainer of this open source farming robot, and I just published our most significant video yet, along with this companion article. I explain the rationale for operating our project as a non profit, explain how 3D printers inspired this approach, and talk about how we hope to empower farmers and communities worldwide through crowd-funded support. I would love to hear your feedback and discussion about our ideas.
I know many of you will be interested in our github, so here's the link:
https://github.com/Twisted-Fields
One of our contributions I am particularly excited about is our open source motor controller. Off the shelf controllers are expensive and require add on boards to fully integrate with our system. Last year we decided to design our own so we can make one board that does everything we need for about $40. Here's the in progress design:
https://github.com/Twisted-Fields/rp2040-motor-controller
We also support running our code in simulation with a single docker command, though to be honest that is probably broken at the moment as I am ripping things apart for the new version. Still you might find it interesting:

Thank you so much!
- A closer look at Acorn, our open source farming robot
- New open source farm robot prototyped on Prusa!
