I have been quiet lately, but it is for some good reason. I am turning my medical device company ( eyenetra.com ) into an open-source project. As some of you may know, I spent the past 15 years trying to increase access to eyeglasses by developing and shipping a new class of vision-testing devices. Even though we shipped thousands of units and served millions of patients, Nostr made me realize what I was missing all along: true decentralization. All of our hardware designs and software will be made available to the FOSS community to build their own vision-testing devices and services. And I am going to be working with design/manufacturing partners across the globe to bring them to the market in as many variations as we can. It has been a long process but I finally have all approvals to make it happen. Thanks to all my shareholders who believed in this idea and allowed me to make it happen. The future is bright.

It's really fascinating how a novel vision can open new energies and transform in better consolidated project and business. Good luck! PS: The three main product images in the homepage are linked to non https sub-domains, this prompt a nasty alert.
Awesome project! If you're not already aware appropedia.org is a great organization for open source knowledge, especially in developing countries. Consider adding some information there to take the project further and leverage students and a global community!
