open, easy to hack products upfront designed
for (decentralized) reuse & recycle

32. * EDUCATION
surrounded by products that invite you to
codesign them.

33. > SUBSISTENCE
open, easy to hack products upfront designed
for (decentralized) reuse & recycle

34. > FREEDOM
the internet of things will transform many
objects into data collecting devices

40. How to Open Source
Your Hardware?

41. Open source hardware (oshw) is
hardware whose design is made
publicly available so that anyone can
study, modify, distribute, make,
and sell the design or hardware based
on that design.

42. Open Source It Manual
http://owiowi.net

43. 1. Publish your design-files
(like building plans,
software, cad-files, bill of
materials etc.)

44. 2. Use data formats that
others can easily view
and edit. Prefer open
formats and open design
tools, or at least cheap &
accessible alternatives.

45. 3. Use free culture
licenses like the Creative
Commons Attribution
License. Avoid licenses
with „Non Commercial“
clauses.
Creative Commons-Attribution

46. 4. Use wherever possible
in your design readily-available
components
and materials as well as
standard processes,
open infrastructures and
unrestricted content.

47. 5. Spread it! Mark your
files prominently as
open-source hardware.
And make your work
easy to find online,
promote it.
