Computer systems

Cameras

  • Elphel, Inc. - cameras based on free software and hardware designs.
  • Xué - reconfigurable network camera based on the Milkymist system-on-chip.
  • The Franken camera and open source camera with open source logic and hardware circuits made by Stanford University.

Amateur radio

Computer components

CPU

There are several "open source hardware" CPUs, typically implemented as a soft microprocessor.

  • LEON is an open source 32-bit SPARC-like CPU created by the ESA. It's the standard CPU for the European Space Industry.
  • Milkymist SoC, featuring the LatticeMico32 microprocessor core, has a complete set of independently developed open source system-on-chip cores such as a SDRAM controller, bus components, graphics accelerators and a variety of I/O devices.[1]
  • MyCPU is a "central processing unit" that is completely build with discrete logic gates.
  • OpenCores is a loose community of designers that supports open-source cores (logic designs) for CPUs, peripherals and other devices. OpenCores maintains an open-source on-chip interconnection bus specification called Wishbone.
  • OpenSPARC is an open-source processor project to which Sun Microsystems have contributed the UltraSPARC T1 and UltraSPARC T2 multicore processor designs.
  • OpenRISC is a group of developers working to produce a very high performance open source RISC CPU.

Several designs include a CPU:

  • Arduino, an open-source physical computing platform based on a simple I/O board and a development environment that implements the open source Processing / Wiring language. Also clones of this platform including Freeduino.
  • Ethernut - open-source electronics prototyping platform for building tiny Embedded Ethernet Devices.
  • Maple - open-source Arduino-compatible development hardware based on an ARM Cortex-M3 microprocessor designed by LeafLabs, a company focused on open-source hardware.
  • Milkymist One is an interactive VJ station featuring the open source Milkymist SoC as CPU.
  • Pinguino - open-source electronics prototyping platform based on PIC (Microchip). A alternative is the Jaluino board supported by the JAL compiler (JAL). There is support for both hardware and software.
  • PLAICE - The PLAICE is an open source hardware and software project developing a powerful in-circuit development tool that combines in one device the features of a FLASH Programmer, Memory Emulator, and High Speed Multi-Channel Logic Analyzer. It runs uClinux.

Graphics cards

Wireless hardware

  • openPICUS - Open source platform for smart sensors and Internet of things
  • OpenPattern[2][3]
  • RedBee[4][5] open source/hardware 802.15.4 development system based on the Freescale MC13224V ARM7 radio.
  • Sun SPOT is an open source hardware and software platform for sensor networks and battery powered, wireless, embedded development.
  • USRP universal software radio peripheral is a mainboard with snap in modules providing software defined radio at different frequencies, it has a USB 2.0 link to its host computer.
  • PowWow[6] Power Optimized Hardware and Software FrameWork for Wireless Motes is an open source hardware and software platform for wireless sensor networks.

Laptop case

Audio electronics

  • MIDIbox The MIDIbox project is an open source modular DIY hardware and software platform for MIDI devices like controllers, synthesizers, sequencers
  • Monome 40h - A reconfigurable grid of sixty-four backlit buttons, used via USB. A limited batch of 500 monome 40h has been produced. All the design process, design specifications, firmware and PCB schematics are available online
  • Neuros Digital Audio Computer an open source portable digital audio player
  • The Stribe A programmable array of illuminated touch-strips that interfaces to music software via USB

Video electronics

Other

Telephony

  • Openmoko - open phone framework (first use case: FIC Neo FreeRunner, Released as of mid 2008)
  • IP04 IP04 -The IP04 is a 4 port IP-PBX that runs Asterisk and uClinux on a powerful embedded Blackfin processor.
  • XiVO - Small appliance with 4 T0 and 2 analog ports IP-PBX that runs Asterisk on a Intel Tolapai with TDM Bus processor.
  • TuxPhone [2] - Is a project to develop open source (hardware and software) GSM/GPRS cellphone.

Machines and tools

Renewable energy

  • Small wind turbines: To assist people in the developing countries, and hobbyists alike, several projects have been open-sourced, e.g. the Jua Kali wind turbine, Hugh Piggot's wind turbine, ForceField Wind Turbine, et cetera
  • OpenEnergyMonitor project: a project to develop and build open source energy monitoring and analysis tools for energy efficiency and distributed renewable microgeneration.
  • Free Charge Controller project: an open source charge controller using MPPT to maximize power delivery from alternative energy sources. In its current state, it is designed to interface a 60 watt solar panel to charge a battery, but alternative input sources and loads are planned.
  • CleanInventors Solar Tracker:Solar Tracker using Arduino.
  • AlgaeFarm project: an open source hardware project to design and build an automated small-scale photobioreactor for the cultivation of microalgae. The project aims "to create a safe, affordable, and multi-feature reactor that increases the viability of small-scale photobioreactors for school research and science fair projects, biofuel research and development, growing your own fish food, etc."
  • SolarFire project: An open source linear reflecting fresnel solar concentrator. It is intended to be used by small industries and agricultural purposes, replacing use of coal and wood fires.It is also being deployed by Open Source Ecology project.

Robotics
