The lack of scientific openness is identified as one of the key challenges of computational reproducibility. In addition to Open Data, Free and Open-source Software (FOSS) and Open Hardware (OH) can address this challenge by introducing open policies, standards, and recommendations. However, while both FOSS and OH are free to use, study, modify, and redistribute, there are significant differences in sharing and reusing these artifacts. FOSS is increasingly supported with software repositories, but support for OH is lacking, potentially due to the complexity of its digital format and licensing. This paper proposes leveraging FAIR principles to make OH findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. We define what FAIR means for OH, how it differs from FOSS, and present examples of unique demands. Also, we evaluate dissemination platforms currently used for OH and provide recommendations.

迈向开放硬件的公平原则

缺乏科学开放性被认为是计算可重复性的主要挑战之一。除了开放数据之外，免费和开源软件 (FOSS) 和开放硬件 (OH) 可以通过引入开放政策、标准和建议来应对这一挑战。然而，尽管 FOSS 和 OH 都可以免费使用、研究、修改和重新分发，但在共享和重用这些工件方面存在显着差异。软件存储库越来越支持 FOSS，但缺乏对 OH 的支持，这可能是由于其数字格式和许可的复杂性。本文建议利用 FAIR 原则使 OH 可查找、可访问、可互操作和可重用。我们定义了 FAIR 对 OH 的意义，它与 FOSS 的区别，并展示了独特需求的示例。还，
