Eco Factor: Concept lights convert waste noise into electricity.
Airports are one of the noisiest places in any city and they do consume a lot of energy as well. Industrial designer Hung-Uei Jou has come up with a concept product that can make good use of all that expended energy and reduce an airport’s energy requirements.
Dubbed the Green Noise, the system converts noise into electricity on the runway, which is then used to power onboard runway lights. The device features a conical speaker-form to endure the elements. Moreover, the modular structure rests on a tripod base that can easily be removed for maintenance.
