Experience the skills, says Ganu kit

Why let our children waste time on mobile games? When they are so engrossed and updated with the latest technology, why not let them go beyond it? What better if they could… in the most play-way

Mumbai-based PRAL VR has launched Ganu kit in India on 24 February, that is, the second day of the recently held Web Summit’s first edition in India, SURGE 2016 Bengaluru.

Ganu kit is something that gadget enthusiasts have always craved for, a kit to learn how to make computer to do things. Assemble your own computer, keep it open. Want to code, game and learn music? You got it all bundled up in this kit.

It comprises of a Raspberry Pi chip loaded with logical games and projects designed to be learnt, built and enjoyed, which as a whole gives you a means to work on computational thinking without getting bugged of it. The kit is available on company’s own portal www.ganu.me and amazon.in.

The whole idea was inspired from one of the founder, Rohit’s nephew, Kaivalya, who at an age of 5 was already a gadget freak and spent most of his time on mobile devices. Rohit created one such unit for the boy and tried to deviate Kaivalya’s attention to creating something than to being a slave of mobile phones. And it seemed to work wonders as the child was then able to transform the idea to other kids and parents in the neighbourhood.

This gave a good traction, thanks to the neighbouring kids and their parents, to introduce a product like Ganu kit.

At PRAL VR, we think that exposure to technology is important, more so when we realize how smart future generation is about to be. And thus we’d like it to make them smart enough to put their creative ideas into creative technology. Children today, with a hands-on experience with mobile phones and electronic gadgets, operate gadgets better than their parents. With an exposure to such as what this generation has, they already have an acceptability and awareness. Ganu kit further enhances the exposure to self-creativity with mechanical fixing of computer parts and then exposure to learn coding.

Comprised of 13 components to assemble your own computer and graphical books to learn coding and music, Ganu kit also introduces kids and their parents to physical computing and internet of things (IoT). A simple and fun product, we have developed not to remain limited to any one particular age group, it can be used by parents and educators as well. Like the coders would tell you…  there is no age to learn and code.
