You make a valid point . There is a dire need of Open fabrication labs. Are there any in chennai ? There are some simple things achievable by Raspberry pie https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/camera/README.md There is also arduino which is quite famous with FOSS people on the hardware side http://playground.arduino.cc/Learning/Linux There are quite many ways to do things even on the cheaper side but yes more support is needed to build such an environment and we do have many such people in ilugc who can help !
