Apple might be working on solar iPods, iPhones
Market sources point towards a new patent application filed by developers close to Apple. The patents are related to using solar energy to power portable devices.
This could possibly lead to the development of iPods and iPhones which are powered by solar energy.
The patent talks about integrating the solar panels behind the actual LCD screen of a portable device.
This would save the space taken by the panels on the device’s outer surface. The patent application showcases diagram where the solar cells are placed between the LCD Layer and the Flex PCB.
