There are many design changes from Genesis V0.1 to V0.2 that make this version a huge improvement:

• Design and implementation of custom brackets and plates for greater strength and a more optimized design. These could be produced at home with a drill and a printout, a CNC router, waterjetting, or laser cutter
• Endstop integration to let the microcontroller know when FarmBot is at the end of itself
• Changed from looped belts to belt and pinion style movement for both the X and Y directions, allowing for simpler installation, less belt usage, and keeping all electronic components moving together with the gantry (no motors attached to the tracks)
• Features synchronized belt movement along the tracks via a shaft and a single motor to drive both sides of the gantry
• Began Universal Tool Mount integration with a door locker solenoid rather than all tools attached to the bot at once
• Angled slots for wheel adjustments rather than expensive eccentric spacers
• Z-axis leadscrew is positioned closer to the gantry for less induced torque on the cross-slide and wheels
• Minimization of number of parts and simplification of them providing easier and faster assembly, accessible screw locations, and greater affordability
