ModeLabs Group, the creator of customised mobiles (CDM - Customized Design Manufacturer), has shown off three concept phones that can be recharged naturally. In this way, each of the concepts recycles the energy that surrounds it: solar and/or kinetic. Every movement associated with the product's mobility or its environment is recycled to transform it into electrical energy.
The "design and innovation" department of ModeLabs Group have created 3 ecological mobility concepts that each suit different lifestyles and uses.
The YoYo
Practical, it is worn around the neck. In this way, it can make use of solar and kinetic energy thanks to its photovoltaic cells and its pendulum located on the rear side. This hybrid energy concept allows the mobile to continuously recharge itself. The U-Turn
Ergonomical and user-friendly, it integrates an azerty keypad to simplify emailing for professionals that are on-the-move. It recovers energy from the opening and closing of the keypad to recharge its batteries.
The Runaway
Sportsmen and sportswomen fix it onto their equipment (bracelet, MTB, fitness equipment, etc.) or wear it directly on their wrist. The mobile recycles its own movements into energy."
