The conceptual 'Solarpill' is an emergency solar-powered light that could help to drastically enhance the safety of those who spend extended periods out in the wilderness or professionals who spend most of their time in the field.
The compact lights work by being worn and can be positioned onto trees in order to help guide the user as they try to find their way back. This would prevent them from going in circles by indicating their path, while also helping them to be located by a search party in the event they can't find their way out.
The conceptual 'Solarpill' is the design work of Alican Faydalı and, as per its name, utilizes solar power or can be recharged via USB between uses.
