What is the “Maker Movement”? The “Maker Movement” is the name given to the increasing number of people coming from different backgrounds, who are employing do-it-yourself (DIY) and do-it-with-other (DIWO) techniques and processes to develop unique technologies and products as well innovative solutions. Over the last decade the Maker Movement has constantly grown thanks to the development of the DIY culture among the society, facilitated by Internet, where anyone can experiment and create innovative solutions by virtue of a mutual collaboration. Furthermore, the spontaneous and simultaneous growth of projects and technologies like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, MICROBIT, 3D printing physical places like Fablabs and Makerspaces where people can meet and exchange knowledge. The Open Hardware philosophies have played also an essential role in the development of the Maker Movement.
