" Eprashala " Solution for rural education in India

Presenting the worlds first LED projector with built in Computer that can run Windows XP or Linux and has lan, wifi and 3 usb ports built in. and can run on solar energy without the need of dependency on conventional sources of electricity.This product is developed specifically for Education purpose keeping in mind the needs of rural India where education is very difficult and implementation of technology is impossible due to lack of electricity.

In India it is very disheartening that children in rural places travel up to 5-6 km daily to their schools, and these schools do not have proper facilities to provide them proper education.Teachers of rural schools in villages and small towns receive low income so there is a possibility that teachers give less attention to children. Small children walk for hours to reach school on time and then just sit in schools and no body to teach them. There are schools where one single teacher is made to teach all the subjects, it is really very disheartening, and it is high time the situation must improve. The need of today is that every educated person should turn back and look at his native place and do something that will benefit them.

We at PC Clinic have developed a revolutionary device or a very new concept which we call " Eprashala " Where E stands for Electronic and Prashala means a big school in sanskrit". Our dream is that i want a Eprashala in every school across the entire country, which will not only make the child literate but also create a solid platform for him to compete in the global market.

In short i will explain the function of this device. It is a single device based on LED technology. PC Clinic has developed a LED based projector and now we have incorporated the computer system inside this device, we are using resonance speakers inside this device which will produce sound loud enough to be heard by 100 students sitting in a classroom. The computer system inside will use a Solid state disk and run on linux or XP Operating system customized to run our E Prashala software which covers the entire syllabus from 1st to 10th, + it also has cultural & regional programs and Adult Education. We have the contents ready for this in 3 languages (English , Marathi & Semi English) which are popular in Maharashtra. The language used is very simple and easy to be understood at grass root level. The Eprashala will be programed to run the particular lecture at a particular time as per the time table of the school. This device will have a chord less keyboard and mouse set for manual operation. We also have a electronic examination system with common questionnaire for the entire syllabus. Each student will have a remote controller which will be distributed according to the enrollment number before the E examination. A objective question will be displayed on the screen and the students have to select the option using the 4 buttons available on the remote within prescribed time, at the end of the exam the results will be displayed , student wise or question wise, so the teacher will be able to know the weaker students and also come to know the part of syllabus which needs to be revised again. These lectures can be conducted keeping their routine school timetable unaffected.
We are also planning to develop a centralized administration system for such schools, where our device will be equipped with a broadband internet data card, thus we can upload the contents in these schools from one centralized locations. conduct centralized examinations. And we can also run educational & cultural programs for farmers and other elderly people on weekends for their education & upliftment .

The entire system is run on 100 watts led bulb and uses less than 110 watts of DC power which is supplied via Solar panels, as electricity in rural areas is a big concern. The projectors can run for 16 hours a day without a stop or overheating. Surprisingly this device despite of having so many features is very handy (310*240*120 mm) and weighs only 4.5 kg.
