TinkerPod
Open Source Maker Hardware Platform
Juan Sulca
Project Description
The TinkerPod is an Open-Source hardware platform designed to appeal to makers, creative coders, and designers by providing a hackable and customizable hardware platform with an uncommon approach. Inspired by the evolution of multitools and influenced by contemporary devices like the Flipper Zero and SQRT, this project explores the application of critical making, and personal fabrication to Open-Source hardware. The TinkerPod aims to bridge the gap between specialized engineering tools and accessible, user-friendly hardware for creative and technical exploration.
