How galore times have you been left standing in the dark urgently
trying to find thing
in your purse? Well, if Rosanna Kilfedder has her way, those dark times are coming to an end.
A student of Brunel University, Rosanna has developed an illuminating idea. She has designed a star
battery-powered handbag, with a lining that lights up, so women wish have a simpler time finding things in their purse in the dark. Mobile phones, PDA’s, and another wireless devices can besides be recharged from the handbag’s battery.
The handbag, called Sun Trap, uses a star
cell to remove the energy collected from the sun’s rays to an internal battery. The zipper on the bag acts as a switch to activate the lighted lining. The lining is ready-made from an electroluminescent material similar to that found in mobile phones. The bag goes dark once
the zipper is closed, or once
it has been left open for much than 15 seconds.
Rosanna is quoted as saying, "I had the idea for Sun Trap after seeing so galore of my friends frantically searching their bags for home keys, normally on a dark door step. I besides detected
friends exploitation their mobile phones like torches to examine the contents of their bags, which gave me the idea of lighting up the bag."
The "Brunel Enterprise Centre", which helps students and academics develop their ideas commercially, is now giving Rosanna assistance in applying for patents. They have besides supplied her with a mentor, who is advising her on the better approach to delivery her invention to market.
Rosanna has already won an award for her design, and is working hard to get this brilliant product into the marketplace. Her bag was designed with some
utility and security in mind. The idea of including a charger for mobile phones is a fantastic addition to an enlightening idea! How galore times have you been out and had to do a phone call, only to find that you have forgotten to recharge your phone? Well done, Rosanna. We look forward to seeing it on the high street!
