Speaking about the merits of the device, a scientist from the electrical department of IIT BHU, Dr. S N Rajput, who is also the brainchild behind the project, said, "The device with help of local display, Cloud Storage, Email and Bluetooth facilitates in providing information to the recipient. The device is very cheap compared to those available in the market. Its costs Rs 10,000 only whereas a similar device is priced at Rs 5 lakh to Rs 10 lakh."
