Innovative solar panel that looks and acts like a sunflower.

Now let us introduce the smartflower which is a smart solar panel that follows the sun throughout the day. The smartflower s name comes from its design the solar cells are arranged on individual petals that open at the beginning of each day and look like a flower hence solar flower. These stem like artificial materials can bend towards light are self regulating and move into the optimal position needed to absorb sun s rays. It follows the theme started with the tesla solar roof launch which is making more aesthetically pleasing solar panels.

After the sun goes down the smartflower s petals fold up and a self cleaning process kicks in. As opposed to the static solar panels you may be used to seeing on rooftops or lawns the smartflower much like a sunflower follows the direction of the sun to ensure that it gathers as much sunlight as it can throughout the day. Mimicking this natural phenomenon scientists have now built artificial stems with special materials to support solar cells that can track sunlight like sunflowers. So of course it comes as little surprise that the latest solution for sustainable energy comes in the form of a giant sunflower or rather a solar panel that looks like a giant sunflower.

The smartflower is a fusion between solar panels and art.
