It will never produce any amount of usable power. Assuming a 22% efficiency with perfect angle, which is insane, and all you do is lie in the sun, then these might produce 16 W hours a day. Utterly useless. 1000W/m^2 8 hours of sunlight Yes, because if anything is green, its putting expensive washed silicon in an incredibly inefficient angle.

As far as how the bra works, you raise a good point. It really does not say anywhere how it actually operates. Thank you all for your comments. As far as how the bra works, you raise a good point.

If they're solar powered, wouldn't they need to be exposed in the sun, ie. outside? In public? Ah well, yet another wacky invention from Japan that will probably serve us no purpose whatsoever for the time being. How exactly would this work?
