Open Hardware in Times of Crisis and the Future of Local Production to halt Climate Change

Daniel Maslowski, Mario Behling, Hong Phuc Dang, Madhushanka Padmal, Alexander Bessmann, Kee Wee Tang, Daniel Wessolek and Alessandro Volpato

Over the last two years our team has been working on the Pocket Science Lab. While we were connecting with each other online for years the Corona crisis posed a new challenge to us: Chip and component shortages. In this panel we will share our story of how we are tackling this problem and our ideas on how to move forward with local production to solve global delivery issues and reduce the carbon footprint of shipping.

Over the last two years our team has been working on the Pocket Science Lab. While we were connecting with each other online for years the Corona crisis posed a new challenge to us: Chip and component shortages. Even getting prototypes for testing became difficult. In this panel we will share our story of how we are tackling this problem and how the dedication of our community members in Sri Lanka, Sweden, China, India and Germany are essential to overcome difficulties. This session is conceived as a panel where we will also share our ideas about how to move forward with local production to solve global delivery issues and reduce the carbon footprint of shipping.
