A young Croatian innovator goes international.

A new export for Croatia on August 17, 2015, as a young man from Solin was in the BiH capital Sarajevo for the unveiling of an invention constructed with his classmates in the Dalmatian town of Solin, as Ivan Mrvos was on hand for the unveiling of the first six smart benches in Croatia's neighbouring country.

As TCN reported recently,  Mrvos, who is just 20, and his colleagues devised a smart bench whose features include phone and tablet charging, as well as storing energy for up to ten days. The benches are charged by solar energy and include USB connections. 

The six benches are the initial order for Sarajevo, and this number is expected to increase if, as expected, the benches become a hit with the people of Sarajevo.
