Open Design

Open Design is a concept where the plans, ideas, and details of a product, such as a machine or system, are shared publicly for free. This allows anyone to study, modify, and improve the design without restrictions. The approach encourages collaboration, transparency, and innovation, often leading to better, more affordable solutions. Think of it like an open-source project in software development, but for physical designs, enabling a community to collectively enhance and adapt technology for diverse needs.
