Hardware-Agnostic Design

Hardware-Agnostic Robot Design

Definition

A robotics design approach where a single project can run on multiple hardware platforms (Raspberry Pi, Jetson, Arduino, ESP32, etc.) without requiring separate codebases or manual per-platform configuration. Achieved through abstraction layers and LLM-generated platform-specific wrappers.

Examples in the Wild

  • Example 1:orobot.io projects designed to work on Raspberry Pi, Jetson, Arduino, and ESP32
  • Example 2:Single install script that auto-detects hardware and applies correct controller wrapper
