Its hybrid solar lighting system features a 40-inch mirrored dish with a GPS-director monitor to move it during the day and maximize light intake. Once light is collected from a roof and concentrated, it is filtered and then spread through a building through bundles of plastic fiber-optic chords. About 25 retail outlets and office buildings are testing the company's system, which the company hopes to bring to market early next year. The selling points are lower electricity bills and the benefits that natural light has on people, whether they are employees or customers, according to the company.
