Namibia Pupil Invents Phone Which Doesn’t Use Airtime (Photos & Video)
A Grade 12 learner in Namibia’s Ohagwena Region has invented a sim-less mobile phone that allows users to make free calls and watch one TV channel.
Simon Petrus, a pupil at Abraham Iyambo Senior Secondary School, created the phone using spares from a phone and television set.
Complete with a light bulb, fan and charger socket, the handset functions off power supplied through a radiator and is able to make calls to anywhere through the use of radio frequencies.
The invention, which is made up of a radio system, is attached to a box and also allows the user to view one TV channel on it.
He is also able to watch NBC1 TV on his box.
No stranger to the world of creation, Petrus is reported to have won a gold medal at national level last year for his invention of a two-in-one machine that works as both a seed drier and cooler.
The shy learner has admitted to working on his invention for two years through money provided by his unemployed parents.
Petrus claims that he invented the phone in the hopes that it would be successful and be able to be carried further.
