< p > Dutch designer Paulin Van Dongen together with Holst Center and Tno has developed a futuristic Solar Shirt shirt that can generate electricity for charging gadgets. About this & nbsp; writes & nbsp; econews.

< p > SOLAR Shirt shirt has been designed to wear as casual clothing as demand for portable power sources continues to grow. Earlier, scientists proposed to use polymer & nbsp; a film built into shoes that produce electricity while walking to charge gadgets. For his part Solar Shirt uses the sun for generation.

< p > The most important component of Solar Shirt & mdash; It is a fabric that integrated 120 thin -digging solar cells that convert sunlight into electricity. These items are bent and can be washed.

< P > According to developers, with full sunlight, Solar Shirt can produce about 1 watts of electricity. This is enough to charge smartphones, MP3 players or cameras in a few hours. Thus the shirt retains the comfort and practicality of ordinary clothing.

< P > Solar elements are not just built into the fabric, but also combined into functional modules that can be assembled so that they fit perfectly into the shirt cloth. Thanks to the stretched electronics technology, from Holst Center they are barely noticeable as part of the clothing.

< P > The modular system can also hide the battery for storing energy produced by solar elements. This gives you the opportunity to charge gadgets even indoors.
