Textus: One Line est collectio supellectilis hortensis quae instrumenta mobilia energia solari onerat. Collectio mensam caffeariam, lectulum solarem et mensam altam comprehendit. Cellulae solares cum potentia totali viginti sex wattorum in involucro discreto continentur atque pilam internam onerant. Pila plena octo ad decem telephona intelligentia per foramina USB et USB-C onerare potest. Bulla tactilis lumen LED sub mensae tabula accendit. Involucra ex ferro et aluminio pulvere obductis facta sunt. Omnes partes removeri possunt, ita ut curari, substitui aut recolligi valeant.

Production Technology
the products casing are made of powder-coated steel and aluminum. All additional elements are easily removable, which allows for quick service and replacement of components. The photovoltaic panel is not an integral part, after the product has been used up all components can be recycled.
Design Challenge
The engineering challenge was to create lightweight and durable structures that could fit all electronic components.
Research
During tests, we checked the demand for additional possibility of charging phones outdoors. We collected data from our other products equipped with chargers. Studies have shown that around 10-15 people use the charger daily, charging the phone for an average of 20 minutes. This allowed us to estimate the size of the solar panel and battery capacity.
Inspiration
The growing demand for charging mobile devices outdoors was inspiriation to this project. Mobile devices have become our everyday life and it is hard to imagine life without them today. The assumption of the project was to prepare a devices that allows you to charge the phone using only solar energy. The look of the table was to be minimalist, one of the inspirations was the lack table, the most popular table in the world available.
Project Duration
the project was developed in Warsaw. Conceptual work lasted from May 2019. After many prototypes and tests, the project was finally implemented in January 2020.
Operation Flow
The table is equipped with a photovoltaic panel that charges the battery placed inside. When the battery is fully charged it can then charge 8-10 smartphones. If you want to charge your phone, you can use the USB or USB-C socket. In addition, the table is equipped with LED backlight activated by a touch button.
