Portland Science Hackday at XOXO Outpost kicks off after Open Hardware Summit on Friday night. I'll be giving a quick talk about OSHW.

Anyone have examples relevant to science that I should be sure to mention?

Thanks, DrewOpen Source Lab

All of Hackteria's stuff is great! they have lots of wikis for making lots of scientific tools for open source bio art and science (particularly biochemistry and microbiology and now taxidermy)

their web site is down a bit right now http://hackteria.org/wiki/


and seconding gaudi labs (hackteria friend)

I make weird stuff with field biologists digitalnaturalism.org

right now it focuses more on the participatory design elements of it all

quick briefer on my stuff can be found in the zine of my thesis: https://www.scribd.com/document/288283829/Digital-Naturalism-Theory-and-Guidelines

you can see some fun tools there

and big and small projects on my instructables: http://www.instructables.com/member/blorgggg/

If you are interested in space sciences I would suggest Libre Space Foundation's (https://librespacefoundation.org) projects too:

SatNOGS (https://satnogs.org) an open source hardware satellite ground-station network UPSat (https://upsat.gr) the first open hardware satellite bound to be launched to the International Space Station in late December

Disclaimer notice: I hold a board position in LSF so I am kinda biased.
