One of the more intriguing questions I have come across when Chris (my team mate) forwarded me this lead. Soccer ball? Kerosene lamp? Huh?! I can’t figure out the relation till I read the article, and what a clever idea it is! sOccket, produced by a group of Havard students, generates and stores electricity during play, and this can be used later to light up a lamp, or charge batteries and handphones. This gadget is especially useful for developing countries where electricity is not readily available, and could replace the use of kerosene lamps that could lead to health problems after prolonged exposure.
