Students from Blakewater College in Blackburn, England have managed to come up with blinds that not only prevent sunlight from seeping into the room, it also helps keep the earth green by absorbing sunlight and converting it into energy. The environmental impact of such an invention would be tremendous assuming it takes off on a large scale - buildings will be able to collect solar energy every single day, storing power for use at night.

Guess these solar-powered blinds would go down extremely well with Solar Energy curtains.
