Kits, methods and programs for generating distress signals based on solar energy

Abstract

According to embodiments of the present invention, a kit for generating a distress signal based on solar energy is disclosed. This kit comprises: a base unit that includes a base plate, a long-distance communication module coupled to one side of the base plate, at least one processor, and a battery; and a plurality of arm units that are spaced from one another and arranged around the periphery of the base plate, and are connected to the base plate through a first hinge, wherein each arm unit includes: a first arm plate that is connected to the base plate at one end thereof through the first hinge, and can rotate around a folded portion of the first hinge as a rotation axis in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction; a first solar module and a first light emitting module, which are attached to one side of the first arm plate facing the rotation direction in a clockwise direction; a second arm plate that is connected to the other end opposite to the one end of the first arm plate through a second hinge, and can rotate around a folded portion of the second hinge as a rotation axis in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction; and a second solar module and a second light emitting module, which are attached to one side of the second arm plate facing the rotation direction in a counter-clockwise direction, wherein the at least one processor controls the first solar module and the second solar module to generate electric energy using the received light energy, and then to store the generated electric energy in the battery, and also can control the first light emitting module and the second light emitting module to emit light using the electric energy stored in the battery.
