Abstract

Custom silicon presents an untapped opportunity for addressing complex challenges in robotics, offering optimized performance and efficiency. RISC-V, a novel and open-source Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), has been gaining rapid traction due to its flexibility and adaptability. This work aims to explore the capabilities of RISC-V in the field of robotics by implementing robotics solutions on an FPGA. By leveraging the reconfigurability of FPGAs and the extensibility of RISC-V, this study demonstrates the potential of custom silicon for real-time, efficient, and scalable robotic applications. The results highlight the feasibility and advantages of RISC-V-based hardware accel-eration in robotics, paving the way for future innovations in the domain.
