DESCRIPTION
Fritzing is a software tool which allows users to document these electronic prototype projects and share them with others. Due to its intuitive approach, it can help teach electronics to people without an engineering background. Until the development of Fritzing it was difficult to document or share these projects. Prototypes could only be photographed with their overlapping wires, which made them very difficult to “read”.

Tangible User Interfaces are greatBecause they are meaningful and fun
!is one is from ATMEL
Microcontrollers!e magic sauce
Arduino UNOMicrocontroller boardsmake them accessible for us
SparkFun / Honeywell Acceleration Sensor
Breakout boardsmake even the most advanced technology accessible

Breadboards, the non-engineers delight...wonderful and tragic
Of course there are professional toolsbut they are made for engineers and their process

Reactions
Fritzing to the rescureOur original vision: “From prototype to product”
Started as funded research project at FHP in 2007Awesome team! (excerpt shown here)
Community-driven visionFritzing Summits in 2007 & 2008
Vision fulfilled in 2009 and funding, too :(
