Designed to be thin and extremely flexible, the self-contained power source can fit a variety of applications &#8212; even taking the shape of the device it powers. Florida-based Genesis plans to integrate the technology into solar-powered chargers for cell phones and related hand-held electronic devices. The company is finalizing development of a solar-powered charger called SunBlazer, which it expects to release within the next several months. &#8220;The invention enables batteries in small electronic appliances to be charged and deliver power more effectively,&#8221; explains APL&#8217;s Joe Suter, PhD, principal staff scientist in the APL&#8217;s space department and co-inventor of the device. &#8220;You can even shrink the size of the battery.&#8221; The licensing agreement gives Genesis limited exclusive worldwide rights to the U.S. patents, with the potential for APL to provide research and development assistance.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corridorinc.com\/breaking-news-usermenu-172\/3253-johns-hopkins-apl-licenses-patents-for-innovative-solar-power-source-to-genesis-electronics?fontstyle=f-smaller\" >Corridor, Inc.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, MD, has licensed two patents to Genesis Electronics Group, Inc., covering a compact power source that produces electricity from solar energy.
