Fritzing is an open-source initiative to enable designers, artists, researchers and hobbyists to take the step from physical prototyping to actual product. We are creating this software in the spirit of Processing and Arduino, developing a tool that allows users to document their Arduino and other electronic-based prototypes, share them, learn from each other, and join the digital fabrication revolution by turning them into professional printed circuit boards.
In this project I am responsible for the concept, strategy, and project management, and created the original interaction design and software architecture.
Fritzing received initial funding from the MWFK Brandenburg and is now a self-sustained open-source project thanks to the support of its users and donors..
