Eat, and digest Energy!




This is an amazing and creative eco-friendly object which literally creates energy by eating bugs!
Created by designers Jimmy Loizeau and James Auger, the gadget harvests bugs from a sticky conveyor belt. The captured insects are then deposited on to a microbial fuel cell for digestion.

Specially chosen bacteria will then break down the bug guts, with a range of chemical reactions providing the energy to drive the clock. Certainly an interesting way to control pests without using chemicals, but doing something useful with the bodies
