We designed a stylish and translucent container to house our modified <i>Synechocystis</i>. Considering the attributes of these bacteria this will be the first self-rechargeable, programmable and eco-friendly biological lamp. It will emit light only at night, and during the day it will recharge thanks to the Photoautotrophic nature of <i>Synechocystis</i>.
