Now, the version for professional use, which is bringing fibre-like speeds to ISP subscribers ten times cheaper, is available for preorder.</p> <p>A kit version of the system - Koruza 1.0 is also available. This version of the system is modular and 3D printed, with assembly instructions and technical documentation published online so that researchers and everyone else interested can replicate it without a problem, understand its operation and be able to modify it for their own purpose.</p> <p>GoodEnoughCNC: In the process of the development of Koruza we realized we need an open source baseline manufacturing solution for prototyping and small series production. That's how we created affordable and versatile CNC solutions to enable simple production anywhere around the globe and to change how we manufacture things. GoodEnoughCNC philosophy is to offer effective digital manufacturing tools that are good enough for most of the applications an average maker needs. We’ll give you an insight into how GoodEnoughCNC machines were designed and developed, explaining the benefits of being effectively open source, using standard components and publishing documentation with instructions online as well as walk you through some of the use cases to show how these machines can be used advantageously to improve lives of individuals and communities around the world, from Nepal to Principe island.</p> <p>BIO Luka: Luka Mustafa is a Shuttleworth Foundation Fellow, working full-time on wireless optical system KORUZA development at Institute IRNAS Rače in Slovenia that he founded in 2014, as well as being a PhD student at University College London. He leads a multidisciplinary team developing open systems ranging from CNC machines to electronics and fibre optic systems, promotes and deploys open wireless networks in wlan slovenia project and manages national and international wireless backbones.</p> <p>About IRNAS: At Institute IRNAS Rače we strive to apply the vast scientific knowledge to everyday reality by creating effective and affordable systems. We believe in an open-source world and sharing and we aim to empower the world with technologies that improve lives, let that be an advanced communication system or a simple everyday utensil. We are non-profit, rewarding the ones that create, always exploring new projects and ideas. All our work is published under open-source open-hardware licenses.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://koruza.net">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
