Spinning Streetlight-interactivity
Posted by pararee on January 30, 2008
yesterday i stopped by the panasonic center in tokyo and i saw these graceful solar and wind-powered streetlights - so-called ’seagulls.’ they generate power during the day, storing it in a battery at the base of the light pole, and illuminate at night while continuing to generate wind power. although it seems unlikely that they have a fast energy payback these are add a dynamic design touch that makes them mesmerizing to watch and bring a little festivity into the city.
