Description
Firmware for a pool robot sold for home use from 2010, read from a unit retired by its owners.
Provenance
Brought to a Lazarus rescue day by a former owner. The controller had failed, so the memory chip was removed and read directly. About 91 percent of the data could be read; the gaps are mapped.
