Solar Powered Necktie is Poorly Designed for Geeks-Only
In todays’ world, a company should make things that are useful with a usable design. In the case with this Solar Powered Necktie, we feel it’s been very poorly designed so no one would buy one.
Regardless, we do like the idea that you can charge your iPhone while walking down the street looking like an idiot.
Who knows, maybe no one will notice it though.
Now a group of researchers at Iowa State University have created a necktie using newly developed solar fabrics. The neat thing, is that the tiny solar panels are arranged in a grid that looks kind of like what you might see on a tie anyway. There’s even a pocket sewn into the back where you can stash the device you’re charging.
