13 Open Source Hardware Companies Making $1 Million or More (video)
,----[ Quote ]
| Selling products whose design anyone can
| access, edit, or use on their own is pretty
| crazy. Itâs also good business. At the
| annual hacker conference Foo Camp East this
| year, Phillip Torrone and Limor Fried from
| Adafruit Industries gave a rapid fire five
| minute presentation on thirteen companies
| with million dollar revenues from open
| source hardware (OSHW). Companies providing
| OSHW allow all designs of the products to
| be shared through an open license, meaning
| that everyone is free to download, modify,
| and share all the schematics and associated
| software.

| 3D printing, youâll stick around and keep
| making Thingiverse amazing! I also hope
| youâll be exploring the world of open
| source and creative commons wizardry thatâs
| quietly transforming the world. To aid you
| in this, Iâve compiled a list of my
| favorite open source and creative commons
| gems and wonders:

| importantly to Thingiverse users, hardware
| is now an open-source thing. Instructables
