And it’s getting worse.. It’s now becoming impossible even to open
hardware with usual instruments.

Be open hardware! Open hardware is like open software,
Open hardware is freedom !
users :are allowed to use, to improve
and to redistribute existing projects freely.
designers :publish documents, software,.. essential to design the device.

ConclusionOpen hardware is about…
…telling people how devices are made,
…improving devices,…reducing costs
Open hardware is like a civilization starter kit.
Thank you for your attention!

Annex B: Economy, companies
Open hardware is economically viable, here arethe benefits of some companies based on openhardware:- Arduino, +one million dollar in revenue.- Dangerous prototype, one million dollar in
revenue.- Sparkfun, 10 million dollar in revenue (!!)- Seed Studios, one million dollar in revenue.
