Researchers in China have developed a radiative cooling system inspired by the way sunflowers track the sun, with experiments showing a 135% increase in cooling flux at solar noon compared with a fixed horizontal version of the same selective emitter. The system, called dynamic sky view factor steering (DSVFS), changes the orientation of a cooling surface to reduce its exposure to direct sunlight while retaining access to the sky.
