A local University Prof is working with Magna Corp to turn auto windshields into radio speakers. My oldest son worked with this prof when he was doing his masters thesis.

THANKS FOR THE HIJACK!

Just thought some would find this an interesting concept.

Gary,

 

The piezoelectric efect from a glass isn't new, but the idea to exploted as a low freq device is.

 

May be next one will be to replace the speakers with the fabric of the internal roof.

 

I still remember the old flat pannels that replaced the big baffles.

 

Electricity efficiency is the goal.

As a Physicist, I found it very interesting. As mentioned earlier, not ground shattering research or anything, but a very interesting application of the concept.

 

There are some practical issues that I am curious how they are going to deal with, but it sounds like they are on to something. I have looked up some more info on the research group and will be looking forward to their publications describing their research.

 

Thanks for sharing it.
