This innovative device, developed by a team of researchers from esteemed institutions such as the Indian Institute of Technology - Madras, the Indian Institute of Science - Bangalore, and the University Grants Commission, has been primarily designed as an educational aid for students and teachers.
The tablet device, yet to be named, runs on the Linux operating system and boasts a range of impressive features. It allows for Internet browsing, video conferencing, and computing abilities like Open Office, SciLab, and numerous others. The device is compliant with PDF format and can play back YouTube videos, making it an ideal tool for academic research and multimedia presentations.
One of the most striking aspects of this tablet is its affordability. The cheapest model currently available costs just $35. The manufacturer, a company based in Bangalore, India, is Xiaomi, with the Xiami Redmi Pad Pro priced around 179 euros as an affordable entry-level tablet. The makers of the new tablet have revealed that it will be able to play back both stored and streamed media files, further enhancing its educational potential.

The target audience for this tablet is teachers, students, and the general public, with the astoundingly low price of the tablet expected to attract a wide range of users.
In an effort to make this device even more accessible, the Indian Government is planning to provide subsidies for the tablet. This move is expected to further lower the cost, with estimates suggesting that the price could drop to as low as $20 or even $10 in the future.
This affordable, educational tablet device is set to revolutionise the Indian market and provide a valuable resource for students and teachers across the country. With its user-friendly design, wide range of features, and low cost, it promises to democratise access to technology and education in India.
