FarmBot

There are two main steps to setting up your FarmBot:

  • installing the robot on your structure

  • connecting your robot to its online user interface

Hardware

After constructing a simple frame for your robot, you can install the FarmBot robot itself.

​

The FarmBot comes with detailed physical installation instructions, which are outlined on their website here:
