AgXRP Beta - Educational Agriculture Automation Kit

The AgXRP – Educational Agriculture Automation Kit is a modular, open-source platform built on the SparkFun XRP robotics system. Featuring tool-less 3D-printed assembly, peristaltic pumps, and soil sensors, it enables users to design, build, and program automated plant care systems. By merging robotics, automation, and agriculture, AgXRP offers a hands-on pathway to explore STEM concepts while gaining skills relevant to modern agricultural technology.

This upload contains all 3D-printable parts for the mechanical assembly, including a rail-based frame, adjustable bottle holders, peristaltic pump mounts, and keyed rail connectors. All components are designed with custom support material that removes easily, ensuring clean prints and minimal post-processing.

The design uses the SnapBolt-HexClip system, allowing every piece to be assembled and disassembled without tools. This system enables quick setup, easy reconfiguration, and compatibility with other XRP-based projects. Once printed, the frame can be fitted with pumps, electronics, and accessories to create modular, automated plant care systems or other creative automation projects.
