Question ID: 217595
I'm looking for info on creating custom software for the Friendly
Robotics RoboMower. The hardware is a good platform for robotic
mowing, so I'd like to be able to download my own control code into
the unit.

It doesn't look like the company offers any support or an SDK, but I
have to imagine that *someone* has reverse engineered this thing.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Hi bigjosh,

sorry to inform you that Friendly Robotics officially says "that's not
an option:" I called their dealer support hotline and the gentleman
who answered was very gruff in responding that there's nothing like an
sdk available.  If you want to try your luck, here's the contact
information:

I'll keep looking for a hack, but I'm skeptical.

Have a good day,
