Would body paint make me a robot?


What advancements have there been in the field of solar nanotechnology?

I'm glad you asked. You're so inquisitive.

Well, what would you say if I told you that you could paint on solar paneling?

That's right, it's solar paint!

From the website:

The secret is "quantum dots," particles made from semiconductor crystals. They can be tuned to absorb particular colors of light, dots so tiny they can be dispersed in a solvent and then painted onto something else - a house, a car, even a sweater.
