What you're looking at is a solar cell in front of that flower. Plastic solar cell company Konarka has developed a transparent cell which it is producing in limited numbers. The company intends to license the transparent cells for different applications, including integrating them into windows. Window maker Arch is already developing a window with this cell placed between two sheets of glass.
