Ngonyaka odlule, uKano waqala ukukhishwa kwekhompyutha yekhompyutha yedeskithophu ephelele ezungeze i-Raspberry Pi njengendlela yokwenza izingane zithande ukusebenzisa ikhompyutha. Inkinga engalindelekile, noma kunjalo, iningi lezingane namuhla lithanda ukuxhumana namadivayisi weselula athinta isikrini — njengama-smartphone namathebulethi — kune-PC yedeskithophu. UKano uqaphele futhi wethule uhlobo olusha lwekhithi manje olufaka isikrini sokuthinta esingu-10-intshi. Lokhu ngempumelelo manje kuvumela izingane ukuthi zihambe futhi zihlele zisebenzisa i-OS yangokwezifiso yenkampani ngokuswayipha nje ngomunwe — indlela yokuzikhethela yekhompyutha.
IComputer Kit Touch yenkampani ifaka phakathi iRaspberry Pi 3 SBC (1.2GHz quad-core Cortex A53) yangokwezifiso, ibhodi lokushayela elibonisiwe, ibhodi yamandla, ibhodi le-USB, isikrini esithintwayo, izintambo, nokuningi. Iningi lezinto zinemibala ekhanyayo ye-pastel, ehambelana nenqubo yokwakha echazwe encwadini yokufundisa-efana nesethi ye-LEGO.
Lapho inqubo yokwakha isiqediwe, ungasebenzisa umshini ukufaka izinselelo zokubhala usebenzisa i-GUI yokuhudula bese uphonsa noma uqalise izinhlelo zokusebenza ezifakwe kusengaphambili ezifana ne-Google Chromium, iDrayivu, i-YouTube, i-LibreOffice ne-Wikipedia. UKano uphinde anikeze isitolo sohlelo lokusebenza kuwebhusayithi yabo lapho ungalanda khona amanye amathuluzi nezinhlelo zokusebenza, kufaka phakathi i-Code Academy, i-Song Maker, i-TUX Paint, nokuningi.
Ngokuhambisana nekhithi yekhompiyutha ka-Kano ka-DIY, inkampani inamakhithi we-DIY angeziwe aklanyelwe ngemfundo engqondweni, kufaka phakathi iKano Coding Kit, esebenzisa i-wand esemthethweni kaHarry Potter magic ukuhlela izinhlamvu ezahlukahlukene eziphefumulelwe izincwadi nama-movie owathandayo. UKano uphinde anikeze nge-motion sensor kit nebhodi elikhanyayo le-DIY Pixel, konke okuhambisana nekhithi yekhompyutha. Labo abafuna ukuthola i-Computer Kit touch ($ 279) noma yiziphi izengezo, bangavakashela iwebhusayithi kaKano etholakele lapha.
