Abstract:

Embodiments of the disclosed technology comprise an exterior light focusing device, such as a parabolic cassegrain reflector connected via a fiber optic cable to an interior where beds or matrices of solar panels reside. The solar panels are positioned on sides of a light-disbursement device, such as a diffuser or series of mirrors/reflectors which receive an input of light from the optic cable and distribute it to solar panels/photovoltaic cells. The generated electrical energy from the solar panels may then be used to power a device, including the powering (charging) of a battery. Interior temperature of the photovoltaic cells as well as intensity and wavelength of light to the cells may be controlled. The solar panels may be constructed of materials without the need for consideration of weather resistance.
