Open Hardware

It would be nice to have all the hardware projects of OLPC with open designs and blueprints (PCBs),we should have in mind what is open source hardware(see also [1] Open design). As OLPC is an Open project all its components must follow open related ideas.

Actually there are two threads of development, one is making USB_peripherals ( o XO_Peripherals ), and the other is extending and improving the analogue input of the laptop trough applications like Measure and projects like Digital_Signal_Processing, the latter is in a superior stage because it need less external hardware support, but is tied to the requirements of the internal audio chip of the laptop.
