Interdisciplinary Open Source Hardware '09 Welcome to definitive guide to open source hardware projects in 2009. First up – What is open source hardware? These are projects in which the creators have decided to completely publish all the source, schematics, firmware, software, bill of materials, parts list, drawings and “board” files to recreate the hardware – they also allow any use, including commercial. Similar to open source software like Linux, but this hardware centric. Each year we do a guide to all open source hardware and this year there are over 125 unique projects/kits in 19 categories, up from about 60 in 2008, more than doubling the projects out there! – it’s incredible! This year, I am asking for your help – the Open source hardware page on Wikipedia is missing more projects that it actually has total at the moment. 3D printing – Open source hardware is now making things. A great year for OSH, have fun reading the guide! Phillip Torrone Editor at large – Make magazine. Related
