How would this help our society? (cont.) • When baking a cake for your dad’s birthday, you notice that you’re out of eggs. Your older sister drives you to the grocery store. When you step out of the car, you remember that you did not ask your mom what brand of eggs to buy. You would normally call your mom to ask, but your cell phone is out of battery power. What do you do? • With a NanoSolar-Cell Vest, you can still call your mom.
Basically, a NanoSolar Cell Vest lets you use your electronic devices without having to charge them. That’s pretty cool!
Can I buy a NanoSolar-Cell Vest today? • You cannot buy a vest right now, but we will hopefully see NanoSolar-Cell Vests on store shelves someday! I hope so!
