"Hélio" is a DAB Radio wich use eco-friendly solar pannel. A laboratory from Switzerland have asked some student to think about the custom of such a technology. The Grätzel pannels work better inside than outside, their texture can be transparent.
In an era of miniaturization for electronic objects, Helio gives radio back the ability to captivate as it used to. Recalling the esthetic of tube amplifiers, the device showcases cells whose direction and colour complement each other to capture almost of the light spectrum.
