There is no lack of variety when it comes to laptops, tablets and smartphones in the market today. But what most of us as users conveniently forget is that all these are charged up using conventional grid power. That means, that all those mobiles, laptops, iPads, PCs and other ‘cool stuff to sport’ collectively leave behind a huge carbon-footprint. Sunflower LED PC monitor not only offers to cut out on the conventional power usage, but also tries to offset the carbon-footprint of other gadgets around the home as well.
The Sunflower monitor has integrated photovoltaic cells that can juice up when you are not at home or not working on the your system. Just place it next to the window and have some sun shine on it and it will do the rest. This power is stored and used for the PCs functioning later on. It also has a ‘wireless Bluetooth sharing dock’ integrated into its stand. Just hook up your favorite mobile (the likes of iPhone 4, Android or WP7 handsets) and you can share data with the click of a button.
You can transfer pictures, music, videos and every other file format that your mobile supports. We are hoping that it will also charge the mobile while sharing files, but its creator Marko Vuckovic has not made to clear whether that feature is on offer. Either way, this is one concept design we can totally get behind!
