summary
Shows concrete pilots: 12 Kenyan schools plus sites in India and Chile run offline content on Raspberry Pi clusters and donated Nexus 7 and Kindle devices powered by small solar panels, serving up to 25 concurrent video channels from a $100–$150 kit. Reports list 41 language translations, 1,322 UI phrases handled, and surviving 45°C desert use. Problems include frequent 64 GB SD card failures and theft risk, but iterative cycles and monthly feedback prove the low‑cost stacks useful and reproducible.
