Fancy Safe Bot
A fancy robotics library for safety critical systems
Fancy Safe Bot is a modern robotics library intended to be used in safety critical systems. Dive deeper into the documentation to learn more about how you can use it to control robots designed with safety in mind.
Check out the source code and docs!
The library is in active development and we'd love to hear from you about how to make the library better and what features you'd like to see. Please have a look at the developer's guide if you'd like to contribute.
What is special about Fancy Safe Bot
Fancy Safe Bot strives to make it possible to integrate robotic control software into safety critical systems with the following library features:
- Follows strict coding standards (MISRA)
- Documentation of the library requirements and software design
- Unit testing, code coverage, static analysis, and profiling
- Sample applications with target embedded hardware
Software designed for safety-critical systems needs to be certified for its intended use, whether in medical robotics, self-driving cars, space robotics, aviation, or other applications where safety is paramount. Large open-source software projects (including ROS) are difficult to get certified in these applications where the entire design, verification, and validation process must adhere to strict international standards (for example, IEC 80601-2-77:2019).
Fancy Safe Bot addresses these challenges with an open-source robotics library that can be integrated into a certifiable software development process.
