Solar Tent for high-tech campers
Futuristic concept tent can harness solar energy to provide electricity to portable gadgets.
Orange, utilizing cutting edge technology in solar harnessing PVs, has reveled new updated Solar Concept Tent. What make it worth mentioning are its high-tech features that give the freedom of camping with all electronic facilities. Designed in association with American product design consultancy kaleidoscope, this futuristic tent can supply energy harnessed from sun to portable gadgets like cell phones and laptops through wireless charging pouch.
Specially coated solar threads are woven into conventional fabric and can be folded easily. Because of its light weight it sets you free from carrying conventional heavy solar panels. The three directional glides can be rotated in any direction to follow the sun whole day. Not only this, but it incorporates ‘glo-cation’ technology which helps the festive-goers to track the location using either an SMS message or automatic active RFID technology.
It will make the tent glow in dark so that you can easily recognize your destination. At the heart of the tent lies a central wireless control hub which indicates the amount of energy generated on a flexible touchscreen LCD display screen. Further, the tent includes an internal heating element embedded within the tent’s groundsheet which is controlled by the central hub.

Live manufacturing
Elliott Montgomery is making people realize the importance of waste management by making them think, not for fun but for a recycled shopping bag.

Apart from making people aware and think about such topics, he’s making sure that your shopping spree goes without having much negative impact on the environment.

Jornadas Parapente y Convivencia
Waiting for next year edition!!!! together again with Nick, Adaptamos Group, Max and all the people that made this possible from Club +7. Saturday it was flyable, everybody was happy, all the tandems has been made. Unfortunatly Sunday we had too strong wind, and the flights had to be cancelled. In the end, i could not be there during this weekend, and i did not had any chance to enjoy the event, so more reason to wait next one coming... very soon. In the photo Rafa as pilot, Alex as assistant, in the middle a great man that wanted to fly.
