SunPartner Introduces Solar Powered Screens for Smartphones

SunPartner Technologies, an engineering company focused on new solar energy technology, has developed a new accessory for cell phones which will eliminate the need for wired charging. The company introduced the concept of light powered phone screens, which absorb solar and artificial light to charge cell phones.

The new technology, called Wysips, is a thin layer of crystal glass that is embedded into a device’s screen. Along with cell phones, the light powered screen may be added to watches and tablets. The screen is completely see-through and thin, so the device it’s on doesn’t look bulky.

The best part? Whenever your phone is exposed to light, it will be charging. “Over the course of a day you add a significant contribution – we’re talking like 15 percent in a typical phone,” said Matthieu de Broca, Business Development & Strategic Alliances at SunPartner.

In addition to the solar and artificial light charging features, Wysips will be able to send and receive data via Light Fidelity (Li-Fi). This happens through using light waves, which is approximately 10 times faster than using radio waves like with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Additionally, Li-Fi is much more secure than Wi-Fi. Instead of sending radio waves throughout your house, Li-Fi connects directly to your device. This means that you have to be in the same room where the light is being emitted to connect. While this could be inconvenient at times, you won’t have to worry about people connecting to your Li-Fi without your knowledge. Li-Fi also isn’t affected by RF-emitting devices like a radio or microwave.

Wysips is said to be on the market in 2015, and has partnered with an unannounced, but prominent manufacturer. The new product is 100 percent beneficial, especially because it will only cost $2 to $3 dollars extra to purchase a phone with the solar and artificial light powered screen embedded into it.
