UNAI member the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom has collaborated with Nokia on a breakthrough research into harnessing the power of lightning for personal use, a revolutionary attempt that can potentially offer consumers with a sustainable alternative to charge their mobile devices. The research was undertaken to investigate how natural power resources could be used to charge a Nokia Lumia 925 with an energy simulation similar to that of a bolt of lightning.
This research in advancing science and technology links in with the?? of higher education capacity-building and sustainability through education.
The experiment was conducted with the help of scientist Niel Palmer of the University's Tony Davies High Voltage Laboratory 每 one of the world's leading high voltage laboratories.
