Solar energy has become increasingly important in recent years as we search for sustainable sources of power. However, owning solar panels can be expensive and not always accessible for everyone. That's where our innovation comes in.

Our first idea is a solar powered phone charger bag. This design allows the strap of the bag to double as a solar panel, directly charging your smartphone while you're on the go. Imagine the convenience of never having to worry about finding an outlet to charge your phone again!

Another idea we came up with is an AI-assisted UV indicator, which could revolutionize how we protect ourselves from harmful sun rays. By attaching a solar detector to your clothing, you can now track your UV exposure in real-time. An aesthetically designed light indicator placed on the garment will let you know the level of UV exposure you're currently receiving based on the number and color of the lights.
