The camera generates power by converting some of the light falling on its sensor into electricity that is then used to take a snap.

Theoretically the self-powered device could take a picture every second, forever.

No satellite stuff for the moment (aside from a 43cm minidish that was on the house already), Samsung SyncMaster T27B550 Smart TV & Monitor, and a few computers...

Sounds kind of "perpetual motion" to me, but it'll be interesting to see how it develops, pardon the pun... :D
