powered and operational at night or on heavily overcast days the necessary size of array 78 depends on the location temperature solar cells are more efficient at lower temperatures time of year and maximum acceptable downtime smaller solar arrays are suitable for the cooler sunny regions many such useful arrays are readily available in the art and are commonly used for powering emergency roadside phones in remote areas for example of course where standard alternating current ac power is available detector assembly 20 may be powered by means of any suitable ac power supply adapter for example the cell phone 80 communicates through cell antenna 32 with cell phone relay antenna 30 fig1 disposed in region 22 a thin client java based operating system of the type used to control cell phone operations is sufficient for controlling the operation of cell phone 80 all communication protocols can be realized without undue experimentation by practitioners having access to common knowledge and standard practices in the field of communication architecture digital camera 66 and ram 70 transceive through cell phone 80 which preferably uses an outer gold plated conformal embodiment 32 a of antenna 32 that conforms to cylindrical container 38 and also reflects any scattered infrared ir radiation to reduce unit heating from incident sunshine preferably assembly 20 should be configured to operate at temperatures from u2212 20 to 50 degrees celsius the inner gold plated surface 32 b of antenna 32 serves as a front surface mirror to.
