Ngokuvamile kunamaphrojekthi amaningi asetshenziswayo Hardware Libre ngokusebenza kwayo kodwa empeleni bambalwa abahle ngempela. Ngaphakathi kwaleli hholo elincane lodumo ngokuqinisekile sine-Raspberry Pi, i-Arduino ne-Genuino kanye ne-RepRap Project. Amaphrojekthi amahle kakhulu asanda kuthola uzakwethu: UFarmbot.
Iphrojekthi yeFarmbot iphrojekthi esebenzisa i Hardware Libre ukuze umhlaba wezolimo nokulima okuphilayo. Kepha iphuzu layo eliqinile akulona lelo kepha libanzi futhi imibhalo ephelele lokho kuzosivumela ukuthi singagcini ngokwakha kabusha iphrojekthi ngokuphelele kepha futhi nokwenza kube ngokwakho, ukudala amagajethi amasha ngokususelwa kuphrojekthi futhi nokuyiyisa kwezinye izingqikithi ezifana nebhalkoni noma ithala elincane.
Mayelana nokusebenza kwayo nokudalwa kwayo, IFarmbot ayihlukile kakhulu kwiphrinta ye-3DNgaphandle kwe-extruder, ukusebenza kucishe kufane futhi lokhu kwenza ukutshalwa kwezitshalo ezithile kube lula kunokujwayelekile, singakwazi futhi ukukulawula ukude sibonga isoftware yayo namadivayisi ayo azosivumela ukuthi siyilawule kude. UFarmbot usebenzisa ibhodi ye-Arduino Mega, i-Raspberry Pi 2, ama-servo motors amaningana futhi inesakhiwo esikhulu esingahle sehliswe ngokuya ngendawo futhi inani lentlenga esifuna ukulisebenzisa. Noma ngubani onentshisekelo kule phrojekthi, le webhu Yiyona esemthethweni lapho ungatholi kuphela imibhalo esemthethweni kepha futhi nesoftware edingekayo, isithangami ngisho nokufinyelela ku-Github esemthethweni yeProjekthi.
Ngikuthola kuthakazelisa ngempela le phrojekthi ngoba yize ingaveli, ubuchwepheshe bamahhala nezwe lezolimo liyitholile futhi singabona amaphrojekthi amahle afana neFarmbot noma i-Agduino. Endabeni yokuqala, ukuqashelwa kube sengathi kuvela kuwebhusayithi esemthethweni ye-Arduino, ngakho-ke akunjalo Angiyena owokuqala noma ngedwa obukeka kahle kulo msebenzi Awucabangi?
