Photovoltaic keyboard
A photovoltaic keyboard is a wireless computer keyboard that charges its batteries from a light source such as the sun or interior lighting, addressing a major drawback of wireless computer peripherals that otherwise require regular replacement of discharged batteries.
Logitech K750
The Logitech K750 is the first solar keyboard. It has a set of solar panels along the top edge, charges in sunlight or under a standard bulb, can work up to three months in total darkness, and includes software to display battery charging status. It is compatible with Windows or Macintosh operating systems,[1][2][3] and it also works out-of-the box with Linux, even though the accompanying software from Logitech does not have a Linux version.
