Laptop below 5000: Young initiative from Orissa « Vijaylingam's Blog
Bhubaneswar: Chandrasekhar Panda and Saswat Swain, two young student-innovators from Orissa have come up with an idea to provide laptops below 5000.
Weighing approx 1.3 kg, the iWEBLEAF laptop has a 10.2 inch LED wide screen monitor, a 320GB hard disk and a standard 84 key keyboard. Its other key features include, a 1.3 megapixel camera, 3 CELLS 2200mAh Li-battery, GMA 950 integrated graphic card and so on.
Speaking over the innovation Chandrasekhar says, “iWEBLEAF laptop is designed and passed the CE certification process and we are working out to provide inbuilt Anti-Theft technology on the laptop itself by using the GSM technology so that the laptop can be tracked easily. He added currently no laptop in India is purely using Anti-theft technology where as we are working to make some modification on our laptop so that it can’t be boot if the SIM module is tampered or fabricated by any means.”
Another innovator Saswat says, “We have tried out best possible option to reduce the price of the laptop even the processor is designed in the college lab itself named DXA 16 and its equivalent to Intel Atom N450 processor. Some parts like keyboard and inbuilt speaker are fabricated through the help of some MNCs and it takes around 10 month to shape our idea into a reality.”
These two young innovators have already approached various ministries to initiate the process of R&D in Orissa itself but as on today they are waiting for state governments’ positive node over the issue.
