SOLAR PANEL, ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT, AND ELECTRONIC TIMEPIECE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17773365 titled 'SOLAR PANEL, ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENT, AND ELECTRONIC TIMEPIECE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a solar panel integrated into a display panel, with a transmissive area, power generator, and anti-reflector to prevent reflection of light on the power generator.

  • The transmissive area of the solar panel allows light to pass through.
  • The power generator converts light into electric power.
  • The anti-reflector on the power generator prevents reflection of light from the display panel.
  • The solar panel is positioned on a visible side of the display panel.

Potential Applications

The technology could be used in:

  • Solar-powered electronic devices
  • Energy-efficient displays
  • Sustainable building materials

Problems Solved

  • Reflection of light on the power generator
  • Integration of solar panels into display panels
  • Maximizing energy efficiency in electronic devices

Benefits

  • Increased energy efficiency
  • Reduced reliance on traditional power sources
  • Environmentally friendly technology

Potential Commercial Applications

"Integrated Solar Panel Technology for Energy-Efficient Displays"

Possible Prior Art

Prior art related to integrated solar panels in display panels may exist, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does the anti-reflector technology work to prevent light reflection?

The abstract does not provide detailed information on the mechanism of the anti-reflector and how it effectively prevents light reflection on the power generator.

What is the expected lifespan of the solar panel integrated into the display panel?

The abstract does not mention the durability or expected lifespan of the solar panel technology, which could be crucial information for potential users and manufacturers.


Original Abstract Submitted

A solar panel is provided on a visible side of a display panel and includes a transmissive area, a power generator and an anti-reflector. The transmissive area transmits light. The power generator generates electric power from light. The anti-reflector is provided on a display-panel-facing surface of the power generator to prevent reflection of light on the power generator. The display-panel-facing surface of the power generator faces the display panel. The light, the reflection of which is prevented by the anti-reflector, is among light having passed through the transmissive area and been reflected by the display panel.
