Open source isn’t just changing the way we interact with the world, it’s changing the way the world interacts back with us. Case in point: open source robotics. Hardware projects: A robot is a physical thing, and therefore, both its code and its hardware are subject to licensing. Fortunately, there are a number of open…
Arduino/Genuino MKR1000 has been designed to offers a practical and cost effective solution for makers seeking to add Wi-Fi connectivity to their projects with minimal previous experience in networking. The board is so young but 131 projects have been already uploaded to Hackster.io. Here at the following link you can see the gallery: Arduino…
The team behind the 3D printed ‘SelfieBot’ has open coded its smartphone telepresence robot for schools and universities, to encourage students and young makers to build their own versions. SelfieBot remains available to buy either as a DIY kit or pre-assembled device. Last year, a Russian American robotics startup named Endurance presented the 3D printed…
Unlock the unlimited possibilities of robotics with Braccio! You can assemble your Braccio in a multitude of ways. Arduino controlled robotic arm, in a tinkerkit that allows you to assemble it in different configuration, specifically thought for different applications. Because it is designed for versatility, the Braccio can also support various objects on the end…
Snickerdoodle is a tool for dreamers and creators to build, make, invent, and do things they’ve always been told weren’t possible. It’s for people willing to explore new horizons and challenge themselves to learn, grow, and handcraft great, new things – not because it’s easy, but because it’s worth doing. Snickerdoodle takes all the things…
Open source software has been around for several decades, now, and is defined by the four freedoms it brings to the user: The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0). The freedom to study how the program works and change it so it does your computing as you wish…
Groundbreaking research at Carnegie Mellon could edge us closer to the printing of human organs — and researchers there made the advancement using a low-cost printer. What’s fascinating about the Carnegie Mellon work is that they were able to print living tissue using an off-the-shelf printer that only cost $1,000. The researchers also came up…
FreedomBox, a personal server that allows you to use the Internet privately or in locations that have bad or no Internet connection. According to the open source operating system Debian wiki page, FreedomBox is a free software stack that is able to host applications like file sharing, shared calendaring, instant messaging, secure voice conference calling, blogs, and…
