A ball capable of storing energy. ultimate in green power is called "s0kket" and is both a football and a renewable energy source laptop.
The original ball developed by engineering students at Harvard University captures the energy generated by a kick or a blow to the head on the ball and stored for later use.
The s0kket, weighing about 150 grams more than a normal soccer ball, picks up in fifteen minutes into the game, enough energy to light an LED for about three hours . The energy that you get well can be used to recharge mobile phones.
With this initiative, young engineers intended to replace kerosene lamps that are commonly used for domestic lighting in homes and businesses in the poorest regions of Africa, where 95% of the population no access to electricity. Still use kerosene, qe besides being expensive energy is dangerous (flammable), its combustion generates 190 million metric tons of carbon dioxide each year and smoke harms health and promote respiratory problems.
