About this episode
Toni Klopfenstein (@ToniCorinne) joined us to talk about what it is like working at SparkFun(@SparkFun) and why open source hardware is important.
Open Source Hardware Association (OSHWA.org) has a certification program for open source hardware projects and products.
Some of the SparkFun products and posts we talked about:
- Tinker Kit
- SparkPunk Sound Kit
- FLiR Dev Kit with its hookup guide and neat video
- Digital handpan (electronic drum) blog post
- Inflatable Friends (balloon robot) blog post
Open Source Hardware Summit was in Portland, OR in October.
Hackaday Superconference was in Pasadena, CA in November. Their site has the 2015 videos available. (There was an Embedded.fm show about it too!)
