Window treatments have the ability to be transformed to be more eco-friendly thanks to the fact that they are in constant exposure to sunlight, which is something the 'Solar Blind' solar window coverings aim to enable.
The 'Solar Blind' works by incorporating solar cells into the slats of the blinds that work to harness energy from the sun that can then be used with the accompanying outlets to charge devices or power other items. This makes them an ideal solution to install in a home or public building as a far simpler way to implement solar technology without having to put panels on the roof which still remains somewhat costly.
The 'Solar Blind' solar window coverings are the design work of Park Yonghwa, Lee Sang Jun, Hwang Ki Nam and Lee Danbee.
