Engineering student Shepeleff Stephen is engaging the solar mania with the development of the Q-SOUND, Bluetooth solar powered headphones. His concept for Bluetooth-enabled headphones incorporates solar panels into the headband. So when you’re walking around the town, your head is the vessel through which the headphones are charged. There is  also a 3.5mm jack to allow for a wired connection. The headband itself is constructed of flexible plastic incorporating amorphous silicon solar cells
The Q-SOUND headphones would not only allow you to listen to music via any Bluetooth-enabled digital audio player, but also would let you take calls on any Bluetooth-enabled cell phone. Two removable NiMH rechargeable batteries, with a capacity of 800mAh and operating voltage of 1.2V, are located within the headband, just above either earpiece, which keep the headphones charged for up to 40 hours.
