The study explores how giant clams in the Western Pacific Ocean can inspire increased efficiency in solar panels by reflecting and directing light towards photosynthetic algae. The clam's movements throughout the day maximize efficiency, with a significant quantum efficiency of 42% increasing to 67% when considering their movements. The research presents opportunities for industries to benefit from the clam's natural strategies for optimal photoconversion and sustainability practices.
