Open Hardware Repository

Overview

The Open Hardware Repository is an open source library of CAD/CAM files that can be automatically produced via Digital Fabrication, unleashing the power of Distributive Enterprise.

The end goal is to have a library of complex machines that can be automatically fabricated on demand by robotic hardware as easily as hitting the "print" button.

While most repositories are currently focused on additive manufacturing enabled by 3D Printing, advances in cheap robotic assembly equipment hold the potential to create powerful Flexible Fabrication assembly lines that can create whatever is needed in a community.
