Open-source hardware

When the day is really full of boring and annoying stuffs I like to watch some nice presentation, something to show me that there is life out there and there the sun shines brighter.

Last week I come across a website called TED – Ideas worth spreading, it is a web site with presentations under 6 minutes.

Well, the website is nice but I don’t really want to talk about it. Today I saw a really nice presentation about Arduino.

“Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments.”

Cool, isn’t it? Well check the presentation (only 6 minutes) and you will be amazed: Massimo Banzi: How Arduino is open-sourcing imagination.

For example one of the open source projects on top of Arduino is an open source satellite!

Enjoy the day and a brighter life with the open-source projects! And let me finish with David Coverdale singing Sunny Days.
