For those who don’t know, Holoseat is Open Source Hardware (OSHW).\u00a0 In fact, v0.3 is certified OSHW (OSHWA UID\u00a0US000058<\/a>).\u00a0 And, we will be submitting v1.0 for certification soon.<\/p>\n

Hackaday<\/a> just put out some of their “rules” for publishing OSHW.\u00a0 They cover many of the items that we have discovered and adopted as part of developing Holoseat.<\/p>\n

My favorite quote is “and now it\u2019s 7 years later and people are STILL asking you for the source code.”\u00a0 A variation of that story is exactly how Holoseat went from this one-off thing I made to a full fledged project and eventually a business.\u00a0 Thanks Bryan for the persistence required to jump start Holoseat!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>You\u2019ve just finished your project. Well, not finished, but it works and you\u2019ve solved all the problems worth solving, and you have a thing that works for you. Then you think about shari\u2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
