    We've seen tons of lighting projects that harness the sun's energy, but none that respond to the other, oft-overlooked light source that graces our sky the other 12 hours of the day (or night, as the case may be). Civil Twilight Collective's amazing Lunar Resonant Streetlightsystem is so ingenious that it was just named the grand prize winner of Metropolis' Next Generation 2007 contest, which crowns one forward-thinking project as the most promising and innovative new idea (this year the competition focused on energy). The high-tech streetlight has an embedded ultra-sensitive photocell that responds to the changing brightness of moonlight, turning on and dimming as appropriate, cutting down on unnecessary light pollution while making evening strolls down Main Street more pleasant and energy-efficient....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/metropolis-next-generation-winner-lunar-resonant-lights/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
