@tsbrownie I am assuming that the plastic transports the light far more efficiently. Solar panels are at best 20% efficient, dont get me wrong I love solar energy, but converting light to electrical then back to light again seems a little silly when you can have direct transfer of light. (appart from the blue leds powered by solar)
Piping it via plastic (with blue led color balancing) is different from artificial light how? We are planning a system to light the central stair in our townhouse using solar panels tied to 12v bulbs (no batteries). When the sun comes up, they glow brighter until noon, when they will dim as the sun sets. "Natural" light feel, available technology (low cost), relatively easy install.
@micropixable What? We have gone a long way with oil and gas items just think how far we would have gone if people invested as much they do on oil on free energy + more...

Green Solution - Light Pipes + Fluoro-Solar Collectors

i think the fluoro-sheets should have rounded sides to help keep the light going to the desired end...cool idea though

What is the fluoro-solar collector material?!?!?!?!
How can i get some of it?!?!?!
