Apple's Solar Powered Laptop w/ Dual Display



U.S. Patent and Trademark office recently awarded a patent to Apple detailing an "electronic device display module" for a laptop that will act as a secondary rear display featuring touch controls. The patent also details a photovoltaic system located in the display unit which could power the device with solar energy.

This patent was original filed in 2012 by apple detailing a portable computer consisting of materials such as metal, ceramic, carbon fiber, and glass for upper and lower housing. The back of the screen will still show apple's logo as it appears on current macbooks, however this time it might be printed via black ink screen (e-paper screen).
