The idea of a tablet computer is not new . History of the tablet started in 1968 , a computer scientist named Alan Kay pointed out that with the advancement in flat - panel display technology , user interface , miniaturization of computer components and some experimental work in WiFi technology . Alan Kay is not one - only because previously had many names - big names who have contributed to the process of invention and perfected until today . History tablet later , in 1972 , he published a paper on the device and called it the "Dynabook " . Sketch of Dynabook showed a very similar device with a tablet computer that we have today , with some exceptions . At the Dynabook , both screen and keyboard * all * on the same plane .

Kay cutting edge at that time . History proves that the tablet takes almost four decades before the tablet is similar to what he imagined taking public heart . But that does not mean there is no market for tablet computers in the fourth decade and the Dynabook concept in addition to the famous Apple iPad . Tablets that first appeared on the market is GRiDPad . First produced in 1989 , GRiDPad including touch screen and stylus monochromatic cable capacitance . Weighing just under 2.26 pounds . Compared with today's tablets , GRiDPad was large and heavy , with short battery only lasted three hours . And the people behind it are GRiDPad Jeff Hawkins , who later founded the Palm .

Until finally the peak of the tablet 's history began when Steve Jobs revealed the iPad first to market , and to convince the market that the tablet computer can be a viable consumer product . Currently , companies such as Apple , Google , Microsoft and HP are trying to predict the needs of consumers , while designing the next generation of tablet devices . The discovery of the tablet pc is a refinement and development of existing computer technology . So never referred specifically who find it.
