Open hardware is used with two closely-related meanings, both in the tradition of open source:
- open design of physical objects.
- open design of electronics.
Fab labs are a common platform for open hardware, allowing designs to be shared around the world, electronically, and manufactured locally.
Special challenges exist in sharing the intellectual property of physical goods, as compared to "binary" information, i.e open source software and open content.[1]
