Considering that water will soon be a rare resource, the Swater water collector is a great piece of innovative technology that does not work like a typical water collector. Instead, it uses sunlight to collect clean water from the condensation that builds up within it.
Designed by Chun Yen Tsao and Hsing-Tan Yang, the Swater water collector relies on solar panels to power its electrical heating tube and disinfecting light.
