Open-source engineering

xSAR publishes practical software, firmware and research tools when they are useful enough to inspect, build, test or extend. Some early hardware experiments, unstable firmware and raw datasets remain offline until they are documented well enough for a responsible release.

The public repository map is organised by engineering area and uses plain status labels so visitors can tell the difference between an idea, an experiment and something ready to use.
