Eco Factor: Concept lunchbox powered by solar energy.

Industrial designer Edita Barabas has come up with a concept lunchbox for those who love to eat piping hot food with chilled drinks. The concept lunchbox, called Sunflower, integrates a set of collapsible petals that are laced with photovoltaic cells to trap solar energy and convert it into electricity.

The electricity generated by the system is stored in an onboard battery and can be used with the simple touch of a button. When the lunchbox is closed all the compartments are connected to an electrical circuit and can heat or cool food items at the same time or separately depending on the user’s wishes. Once opened, the circuit is broken, allowing the user to take out the compartments to eat.
