Open hardware

True open source.
Not just the code.

Seeed releases everything: hardware blueprints, full BOM with suppliers, 3D models, assembly guides, and software. The design files are on GitHub under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.

What this means for a Quintinity engagement: we can rebuild cells around this arm with confidence. We understand the full stack. When something breaks at 2am on a factory floor, we can fix it.
