SunRays
Award-winning idea to let in more light

Independent Project

SunRays is an award winning concept for capturing sunlight on the exterior of buildings and moving it to spaces that lack access to natural light. It works by (1) concentrating sunlight, (2) extracting heat for in-building use, and (3) piping sunlight to areas that lack it. In 2013, a panel of judges awarded it the Jack Rosen Memorial Award for Environmental Innovation, following a pitch contest. In 2014, I was invited back to present at the award ceremony as the keynote speaker.
