Open Source Hardware

"Open Source Hardware (OSHW) is a term for tangible artifacts -- machines, devices, or other physical things -- whose design has been released to the public in such a way that anyone can make, modify, distribute, and use those things." Opennautics has chosen to use the CERN Open Hardware License for all products.
