If Only I Had It

This is truly incredible. Have you ever wanted to actually be able to print out a solar panel directly from your inkjet printer. Now this is a possibility. Think of the enormous amounts of energy that you are able to save. Lets go green. 

A Massuchssetts company called Konarka Technologies has announced that it’s now able to manufacture solar cells using inkjet printing. In such a case, they can produce much cheaper solar panels as the solar cells can just be printed on paper or some other cheaper materials. Or maybe print the solar cells on a belt or shirt, then it will be another wearable product that can be used to power your gadgets while you’re on the road!

Another great product of nano technology that makes it possible to squeeze many millions of super nano-sized solar antennas on a solar panel, which can effectively transform 80% of solar energy into usable energy. Most commercial grade solar panels are said to be able to transform only 20%-40% of solar energy into usable energy. The new solar panel, which the researchers are working on, depends on nano-scaled antennas, having over 10 millions of them clammed into a 6-inch circle to effectively collect sun light.

Women seem to want more gadgets carried around while they’re on the road. Some designers have some kind of crazy thought of incorporating the gadgetry functionalities into dress or suit e.g. the solar bikini that lets you charge your gadgets while you’re lying down enjoying sun bath on the beach. Here comes a dress for the women, which I bet you wouldn’t dare to put it on you. The Day-for-Night solar dress is made up of 448 white circuit boards and with little sexiness added, which is a dress that would eventually carry all the functionalities for every gadget for the ladies.

You’ll notice in the picture above, the dress is made up of many small titles. Which each of them is specially designed to accommodate a solar cell, a RGB LED, or a photocell, and jumper connectors (in the form of 0 Ohm resistors). And a control board is concealed within, which provides power and communicates with the tiles and link to a computer via RF. The titles can be removed or added to adjust its sexiness (or length). Both the software and hardware of the dress are made in modular, which means you can add on more modules to extend its power. It’s some more programmable via your computer’s USB port to extend its functionalities.

Isn’t it pitiful having to carry many of the circuit boards that add so much burden to the ladies? But anyways the girls who wear this kinda shows off quite a bit of their body at the same time. So offer a lot of females to wear this dress with the idea that it will help with the environment and you will be rewarded “) .

Don’t you know that you have to take a regular check of your car’s tires to make sure they’re all fit to run on the road? This can save you your life, a consistent check to avoid unnecessary accident that would happen due to your car’s tires have gone flat. I know for some lazy guys, even you have digital tire gauge chucked in your tool box, you wouldn’t wanna take a regular check using it. Whenever your significant other asks you to take a check, you’d probably say the tire gauge had run out of batteries.

Here comes the eco-friendly solar powered tire gauge, comes equipped with an LCD display, which lets you easily check on your car’s tires and you have no excuse anymore to say that it’s run out of batteries. Just bring it under the sun, the gadget’s solar panel shall recharge its built in lithium batteries. On its LCD screen, you can easily select the pressure settings that you’re comfortable with, including Psi, Bar, Kpa, and Kg/cm2, to determine if it’s time to fill the tires up with more air.
