Designer Weng Jie has created a design innovation for photographers. It is a solar-powered neck strap and it feeds directly into the battery port so you can save your battery for when the sun goes down. The strap is especially helpful to those taking pictures on the beach or any outdoor area without easy access to an outlet to recharge their camera’s battery. Long lasting camera life provides longer sessions and opportunities to explore remote locations when photographing.
The applications of solar technology have been integrated into a whole range of consumer electronics including calculators, backpacks, laptops, lighters, light-bulbs, radios, speakers, and even remote controls. The technology has gotten simple enough to slap some photovoltaic solar cells to any surface and make it solar powered. The revolution is here, and companies have greater opportunities than ever before to incorporate this cleaner, less expensive and more sophisticated technology into their products.
