Ordinary Camera Can Detect Solar Cell Efficiency

Original: A Normal Camera That Can Detect Solar Cell Efficiency

Researchers report that a standard camera can be used to measure the efficiency of solar cells, a task that normally requires specialized laboratory equipment. The approach could make quality checks cheaper and more accessible for solar panel manufacturers and installers. Details of the method and its accuracy remain limited in early coverage.

Why now: A cheap, camera-based alternative to expensive solar cell testing equipment would matter to the fast-growing solar energy industry.
