Now a solar powered tent..Relax…well still in proto stage.

Gizmag reports that these tents will utilize specially coated solar threads woven into the fabric allowing hosts of new possibilities for capturing the sun’s energy. Directional glides made up of this special photovoltaic weave would be positioned outside the tent and could be adjusted by the camper to ensure the most efficient energy capture.

“Inside the tent, power generation and consumption information and wireless internet surfing will be available via a touchscreen interface. A device that will allow cable-free charging of mobile devices by using magnetic induction technology to generate electric charge will also feature. And if it gets a bit on the cold side after dark, don’t worry – your tent will look after you. The tent’s groundsheet will have a heating element embedded into it which will automatically activate when it gets below a certain temperature to provide some welcome warmth as you cozily doze.” says Gizmag

Gone with the old budget 2 dome tent, shiver to think what these tents would cost. Anyways, await in anticipation.
