There was a point in ’s life wherein he wanted to always be in-touch with his beloved pets especially at work. Out of this need came about an invention of his back in 1991 – the two way collar transceiver.
Once again, found himself in a predicament when his cellular phone’s battery kept dying out on him. This created such an inconvenience on his end – hence, “The Smart One” was born.
’s device is developed for mobile phone users. This is an aftermarket product that effectively converts any mobile phone into using solar power. It is so efficient at transforming light energy into an electrical charge that its main source of energy is from any form of light source available such as the sun, moonlight and artificial or ambient light.
shaped his device by applying the latest solar cell technology obtainable to date which utilizes plastic as oppose to the conventional silicon.
Identifying the colossal potential of this technology, has perceived practical functions that could eventually decrease our dependence on fossil fuels for electricity.
is currently on a mission to further enhance his invention. He plans on using a similar technology to that of “The Smart One” to other portable gadgets. Currently mapping out his plans to make the most of solar power, wishes to take this to the next level by exploiting it in a nationalized way.
