Himawari: The Sunflower Solar Lighting System
Posted By: Vikas Shekhawat | Jan 24 2006
Ever dreamt of bathing under the sun and that too indoors? Yes, Himawari can make it possible. Himawari is a very simple but prudently made solar light collection and distribution system. It uses optical fibers to transmit the collected sunlight from the rooftop, or wherever you fix it, to brighten the dark corners of your abode. The best thing is, it tracks the position of the sun and automatically adjusts its angle via its internal clock mechanism, a sun-sensor and a microprocessor and also packs-up when the sun goes down. More, it cuts off most of the ultraviolet and infrared rays. EXCELLENT idea!
