How long does it take to assemble a computer?
It is a big trouble for eating melon people who don't understand the computer. Not only do you need to know what parties need, and each part is as much as the model of the cattle, the computer has not been installed.
Now some people have invented a modular set computer, go to ninety-nine to just going, everyone can assemble!
Now some people have invented a modular set computer, go to ninety-nine to just going, everyone can assemble!
And the assembly time is only 107 seconds!
This is an installed and programming suite that is suitable for all ages. It is known as Kano, although the 6-14-year-old child, anyone can complete assembly to build a computer, and use it to create games and music, create a video and website, Inventions and create new things.
The founder of the computer set is Alex Klein and Yonatan Raz-Fridman
Initially creative from Klein, only 7 years old little nephew MICAH. In 2012, Alex Klein was asked when playing with Micah. "Is there a computer, installation and music as simple as it?" Klein was shocked by this asked, and it began to be obsessed with this image. Lego is as simple as simple and fun computer.

Klein was shocked by this asked, and it began to be obsessed with this image. Lego is as simple as simple and fun computer.
MICAH let Klein realize that the current child is not only the current technology, and they want to create new technologies to change this world. So he wanted to develop a fun product like a toy and like a teacher, helping children experience DIY, and enlighten them through their own hands to create and change the world.
The founder of Japan Juja Grano, Kanō Jigorō, has made civilians and has been widely spread. So Klein and Fridman decided to name the suite of "Kano", want to express such an original intention: Let the child not only become the consumer of technology, but also become the creator of technology.
2013 Klein and Fridman launched a crowd on Kickstarter in the US crowdfunding website. Because of the significance of this idea in the field of modern education, Kano has become the most popular learning education project on the site, raising more than $ 1.5 million. And received the support of Apple Steve Wozniak.

This computer is priced at $ 149. But there is something in the computer, Kano is available. Let's see which modules are in this set.
Open the box, inside is the computer motherboard, keyboard, assembly line
Computer board: Raspberry Pi, the core of the entire set.
Insert a popular: Raspberry Pi is a simple computer that the British Charity Organization Raspberry PI Foundation and partners is promoted to promote children's computer education. It is pre-installed with Linux system, the volume is only credit card size, equipped with ARM architecture processor, computing performance and smartphone, and has been sought after by the public.
Keyboard: Designed to children, not only the size is light, and the on-right touch board can be held, which can be held like the game rocker, and there are two additional "mouse" buttons on the left.
Speaker: The power is supplied by the computer after installation, which can be recorded by it.
Other: Built-in Kano OS 8GB SD card, WiFi power appliance, and colored network cables and data cables.
In addition, there is also a cartoon sticker in the suit, so that children can decorate the computer into the model you want.
It is, with these things, everyone can finish the installation, after connecting the display, you have a microcomputer that belongs to your own.
Brain.
The most interesting part is its operating system Kano OS. Designed to educate education activities, you can use special image programming languages - "kanoblocks". Unlike many building blocks, Kanoblocks produces real JavaScript or Python code. If the user is proficient in the programming language, there is no need to be in the form of a building block, you can enter the code bar directly to modify it.

Children can play greed snake games on the computer, or you can code your own table tennis game.
5 years old people use it to program, assembled as long as 100 seconds, this computer is going against the sky! | Poison innovation
The bear kids use it to write 17 million pieces of code!
However, these are only the entity parts of Kano, and more important part of the "Kano World" belonging to Kano's own community.
The birth of the Kano world is largely unexpected. Initially, Klein wished to provide some cloud storage space for users who have insufficient storage spaces. But later users began to upload their work to the world of Kano, in just 4 and a half months, there were 20,000 people on the website called "Kano World" to release nearly 6 million pieces of code.
Kano world's layout
The Kano team quickly saw the opportunity to transform the Kano world to the social network of learning resources for children. Here, Kano users can share their own design games, the code you write, and the songs you wrote, other users can also use these works to learn. The new project developed by Kano will also be released here, and automatically decompose into a step-by-step specific step for users to learn.
At this time, the KANO official website shows that the uploaded code has exceeded one nine million, and this number still increments at a rate of approximately four per second.
Summary Time KANO announced its 15 million USA. Kano will put a 1% unblocked equity to non-profit organizations - Kano college, donate children who can't take $ 150. Klein said that the Kano Academy will work to discover children with talents in the community to help them play their own talents. Kano's employees will also put their own working hours into the Kano Academy's affairs. Now, from Kosovo to Sierra Leone to Mongolia, children have used Kano to create their own custom computers.

Because of this invention, only 24-year-old Klein has also mounted on the 2014 Bobes 3 (Forbes 30), the list is specially commended from the outstanding people under the age of 30.
In 2014, London Technology Week, the Mayor Boris Johnson and the former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg also conducted a Kano assembly, and final Mike Bloomberg got dangerous with the help of students.
In 2015, in the TED lectures in Bangalore, India, Fridman proposed a topic that made young people design future. He said: "Let the new generation jump through these ordinary and outdated equipment, which is a great opportunity to reshape the future on India."
Technical is increasingly civilized because of continuous advancement, and the popularity of open source hardware makes the creativeness into a relaxed possible possible. Although Kano's computer suite is not possible to replace traditional computers, it can make people feel the fun of hands-on and give people more enlightenment. Especially for children, Kano's open source kits may be a envelope tool that will be explored and change the world.
Just like Klein: "In a world that uses technology as a transformation carrier, young people will become the creator of the world in an unprecedented manner."
Although science and technology civil society has been advocated, many children in poor areas are still difficult to contact the computer. Rhythm and Thailand. Among them, the Indian market is particularly interesting. It has more than 350 million adolescents under the age of 15. In addition to market capacity, Kano products will also be huge.
Let the young people in the backward area and assemble their own computers, learn to program, help them master computer technology and create a new future, maybe the next Bill Gates appears in them!
