Kinetic Energy Harvested by the Artificial Plants

Adrian — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 22:11:48 +0000

New concept of the artificial plants harvest kinetic energy and store it for later use. They don’t really look like plants but are eco friendly. It sounds weird, but probably in the nearest future, those cheesy plastic plants lurking behind you at Denny’s could actually be harvesting renewable energy from the movement of the air. […]
