I seem to think "Who would have thought" a lot these days with so many technological developments. When I first started using a 300 Baud modem to connect to the world I would have laughed at a wireless signal powered by my glass windows.
Windows are fast becoming portals into the future.
Scientists in Switzerland are already paving the way for electricity-generating windows that could help power our homes and devices. But now researchers in Saudi Arabia have developed a technology capable of transmitting a wireless Internet signal powered by the Sun through specialised glass.
"I hope that [in future] smart modern office buildings with gigantic glass windows will work with the Internet based on this technology," Professor Osama Amin, lead researcher on the project at the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, told Euronews Next.
