Concept: Solar-powered OLED blinds for your room
by Devin Coldewey on February 18, 2008

Seems like a pretty good idea: these student-designed shutters have solar cells on once side and a nice, bright OLED display on the other. In the day they charge and you can let the light in, but at night you close the blinds and you can use them as picture frames, a light show, or conceivably even your computer’s monitor. Makes good use of an otherwise-unused area of a room, and it’s eco-friendly — but sounds expensive. You’ll be seeing a lot of these in design magazines but probably not at your place.
