‘The Light Catcher’ Concept Battery
EcoFriend

This ingenious design for the 2011 IF concept design entry, is contrived by designers Yung-Hsaing Chang, Ming-Shien Lin andChang-Ting Lu. This ’short and sweet’ contraption is basically a simplephotoelectric battery exceptionally incorporating a wholly transparentbody. This placid surface is imbued with an anti-reflective array ofminuscule solar cells.
So when the battery ‘dies’, it can be quite nonchalantly juiced up byour effulgent sunlight and that’s it – it would be effectively up andrunning. The battery conveniently comes in AA and AAA sizes, and canpower up an adjacent small device by just using a 3.5mm jack!
