Solar uniforms for soldiers
Why not develop wearable solar and thermoelectric power systems for soldiers to reduce the loads they typically carry?
My idea is to use solar cells to generate power during the day, while at night thermoelectric devices would harness the difference in temperature between body heat and night air. The systems could be woven into the soldiers' uniforms, and the electricity stored an advanced form of storage device.
