The movement for open-design focuses on the creation of machines, physical systems, and products using design information shared publicly. It consists of the development of systems incorporating open-source hardware and software which can be easily/freely customized and implemented. Generally, this movement is adopted through the Internet and usually executed without economic recompense. The aim and idea of this movement is similar to the open-source movement, however is employed for designing & developing physical systems instead of software system alone. This design necessitates co-creating the end product, which is expected to be designed by the users, in place of an outdoor investor for example a private business. In tune with this, the comprehensive review is carried out wherein a variety of contemporary systems driven by open-design movement for diverse applications is discussed.
