Service/product description

Bug Labs develops BUG, a modular, open source device development platform. Comprised of modular components known as BUGmodules, users snap together hardware blocks and program in Linux and Java to develop their own gadget. Such BUGmodules include touchscreen LCD, GPS, camera, motion sensor, audio in/out, 3G and many more.

What does 'openness' mean in this case?

Bug Labs believes that innovation comes from open collaboration – whether within a community, or given the option to break apart hardware without concern for warranty or ceased support. The majority of its users have actually modified the hardware significantly from purchase, whether by developing custom enclosures or creating entirely new modules from scratch.
